| 1To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. LORD, You have been favorable to Your land; You have brought back the captivity of Jacob. | 1LORD you have favored your land and restored the fortunes of Jacob. |
| 2You have forgiven the iniquity of Your people; You have covered all their sin. Selah | 2You took away the iniquity of your people, forgiving all their sins Interlude |
| 3You have taken away all Your wrath; You have turned from the fierceness of Your anger. | 3You withdrew all your wrath and turned away from your burning anger. |
| 4Restore us, O God of our salvation, And cause Your anger toward us to cease. | 4Restore us, God of our salvation, and stop being angry with us. |
| 5Will You be angry with us forever? Will You prolong Your anger to all generations? | 5Will you be angry with us forever? Will you prolong your anger from generation to generation? |
| 6Will You not revive us again, That Your people may rejoice in You? | 6Will you restore our lives again so that your people may rejoice in you? |
| 7Show us Your mercy, LORD, And grant us Your salvation. | 7LORD, show your gracious love and deliver us. |
| 8I will hear what God the LORD will speak, For He will speak peace To His people and to His saints; But let them not turn back to folly. | 8Let me listen to what God, the LORD, says; for the LORD will promise peace to his people, to his holy ones; may they not return to foolishness. |
| 9Surely His salvation is near to those who fear Him, That glory may dwell in our land. | 9Surely, he will soon deliver those who fear him, for his glory will live in our land. |
| 10Mercy and truth have met together; Righteousness and peace have kissed. | 10Gracious love and truth meet; righteousness and peace kiss. |
| 11Truth shall spring out of the earth, And righteousness shall look down from heaven. | 11Truth sprouts up from the ground, while righteousness looks down from the sky. |
| 12Yes, the LORD will give what is good; And our land will yield its increase. | 12The LORD will also provide what is good, and our land will yield its produce. |
| 13Righteousness will go before Him, And shall make His footsteps our pathway. | 13Righteousness will go before him to prepare a path for his steps. |
