Tehillim, starting at chapter 85
Psalm 85
For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by the sons of Korach.
{85:1} LORD, you have been favorable to your land.
You have restored the fortunes of Ya`akov.
{85:2} You have forgiven the iniquity of your people.
You have covered all their sin.
Selah.
{85:3} You have taken away all your wrath.
You have turned from the fierceness of your anger.
{85:4} Turn us, God of our salvation,
And cause your indignation toward us to cease.
{85:5} Will you be angry with us forever?
Will you draw out your anger to all generations?
{85:6} Won't you revive us again,
That your people may rejoice in you?
{85:7} Show us your lovingkindness, LORD.
Grant us your salvation.
{85:8} I will hear what God, the LORD, will speak,
For he will speak shalom to his people, his holy ones;
But let them not turn again to folly.
{85:9} Surely his salvation is near those who fear him,
That glory may dwell in our land.
{85:10} Mercy and truth meet together.
Righteousness and shalom have kissed each other.
{85:11} Truth springs out of the [1>]eretz[<1].
Righteousness has looked down from heaven.
{85:12} Yes, the LORD will give that which is good.
Our land will yield its increase.
{85:13} Righteousness goes before him,
And prepares the way for his steps.
Psalm 86
A Prayer by David.
{86:1} Hear, LORD, and answer me,
For I am poor and needy.
{86:2} Preserve my soul, for I am godly.
You, my God, save your servant who trusts in you.
{86:3} Be merciful to me, Lord,
For I call to you all day long.
{86:4} Bring joy to the soul of your servant,
For to you, Lord, do I lift up my soul.
{86:5} For you, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive;
Abundant in lovingkindness to all those who call on you.
{86:6} Hear, LORD, my prayer.
Listen to the voice of my petitions.
{86:7} In the day of my trouble I will call on you,
For you will answer me.
{86:8} There is no one like you among the gods, Lord,
Nor any deeds like your deeds.
{86:9} All nations you have made will come and worship before you,
Lord.
They shall glorify your name.
{86:10} For you are great, and do wondrous things.
You are God alone.
{86:11} Teach me your way, LORD.
I will walk in your truth.
Make my heart undivided to fear your name.
{86:12} I will praise you, Lord my God, with my whole heart.
I will glorify your name forevermore.
{86:13} For your lovingkindness is great toward me.
You have delivered my soul from the lowest She'ol.
{86:14} God, the proud have risen up against me.
A company of violent men have sought after my soul,
And they don't hold regard for you before them.
{86:15} But you, Lord, are a merciful and gracious God,
Slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness and truth.
{86:16} Turn to me, and have mercy on me!
Give your strength to your servant.
Save the son of your handmaid.
{86:17} Show me a sign of your goodness,
That those who hate me may see it, and be put to shame,
Because you, LORD, have helped me, and comforted me.
Psalm 87
A Psalm by the sons of Korach; a Song.
{87:1} His foundation is in the holy mountains.
{87:2} The LORD loves the gates of Tziyon
More than all the dwellings of Ya`akov.
{87:3} Glorious things are spoken about you, city of God.
Selah.
{87:4} I will record Rachav and Bavel among those who acknowledge me.
Behold, Peleshet, Tzor, and also Kush:
"This one was born there."
{87:5} Yes, of Tziyon it will be said, "This one and that one was born
in her;"
The [1>]Elyon[<1] himself will establish her.
{87:6} The LORD will count, when he writes up the peoples,
"This one was born there."
Selah.
{87:7} Those who sing as well as those who dance say,
"All my springs are in you."
