1   LORD, thou hast been favourable unto thy land: thou hast brought back the 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 anger 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 peace unto his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly.
    9   Surely his salvation 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   Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down from heaven.
  12   Yea, the LORD shall give that which is good; and our land shall yield her increase.
  13   Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set us in the way of his steps.
