Psalm 85

The Lord speaks peace to His people—Truth will spring out of the earth (the Book of Mormon), and righteousness will look down from heaven.

To the chief Musician, A Psalm for the sons of Korah.

1 Lord, thou hast been afavourable unto thy land: thou hast brought back bthe captivity of Jacob.

2 Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people, thou hast covered all their sin. Selah.

3 Thou hast taken away all thy wrath: thou hast turned thyself from the fierceness of thine anger.

4 Turn us, O God of our salvation, and cause thine aanger toward us to cease.

5 Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations?

6 Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?

7 Shew us thy mercy, O Lord, and grant us thy salvation.

8 I will hear what God the Lord will speak: for he will speak apeace unto his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn bagain to folly.

9 Surely his asalvation is nigh them that fear him; that glory may dwell in our land.

10 Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other.

11 aTruth shall spring out of the bearth; and righteousness shall look down from heaven.

12 Yea, the Lord shall give that which is agood; and our land shall yield her increase.

13 Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set us in the way of his steps.
