Psalms 85

World English Bible

Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)

1LORD, you have been favorable to your land. You have restored the fortunes of Jacob.

1Προσευχὴ τῷ Δαυίδ. Κλίνον Κύριε τὸ οὖς σου, καὶ εἰσάκουσόν μου, ὅτι πτωχὸς καὶ πένης εἰμὶ ἐγώ.

2You have forgiven the iniquity of your people. You have covered all their sin. Selah.

2Φύλαξον τὴν ψυχήν μου, ὅτι ὅσιός εἰμι· σῶσον τὸν δοῦλόν σου ὁ Θεὸς, τὸν ἐλπίζοντα ἐπὶ σέ.

3You have taken away all your wrath. You have turned from the fierceness of your anger.

3Ἐλέησόν με Κύριε, ὅτι πρὸς σὲ κεκράξομαι ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν.

4Turn us, God of our salvation, and cause your indignation toward us to cease.

4Εὔφρανον τὴν ψυχὴν τοῦ δούλου σου, ὅτι πρὸς σὲ Κύριε ᾖρα τὴν ψυχήν μου.

5Will you be angry with us forever? Will you draw out your anger to all generations?

5Ὅτι σὺ Κύριε χρηστὸς καὶ ἐπιεικὴς, καὶ πολυέλεος πᾶσι τοῖς ἐπικαλουμένοις σε.

6Won’t you revive us again, that your people may rejoice in you?

6Ἐνώτισαι Κύριε τὴν προσευχήν μου, καὶ πρόσχες τῇ φωνῇ τῆς δεήσεώς μου.

7Show us your loving kindness, LORD. Grant us your salvation.

7Ἐν ἡμέρᾳ θλίψεώς μου ἐκέκραξα πρὸς σὲ, ὅτι εἰσήκουσάς μου.

8I will hear what God, the LORD, will speak, for he will speak peace to his people, his saints; but let them not turn again to folly.

8Οὐκ ἔστιν ὅμοιός σοι ἐν θεοῖς Κύριε, καὶ οὐκ ἔστι κατὰ τὰ ἔργα σου.

9Surely his salvation is near those who fear him, that glory may dwell in our land.

9Πάντα τὰ ἔθνη ὅσα ἐποίησας ἥξουσι, καὶ προσκυνήσουσιν ἐνώπιόν σου Κύριε, καὶ δοξάσουσι τὸ ὄνομά σου,

10Mercy and truth meet together. Righteousness and peace have kissed each other.

10ὅτι μέγας εἶ σὺ, καὶ ποιῶν θαυμάσια, σὺ εἶ ὁ Θεὸς μόνος ὁ μέγας.

11Truth springs out of the earth. Righteousness has looked down from heaven.

11Ὁδήγησόν με Κύριε ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ σου, καὶ πορεύσομαι ἐν τῇ ἀληθείᾳ σου· εὐφρανθήτω ἡ καρδία μου, τοῦ φοβεῖσθαι τὸ ὄνομά σου.

12Yes, the LORD will give that which is good. Our land will yield its increase.

12Ἐξομολογήσομαί σοι Κύριε ὁ Θεός μου ἐν ὅλῃ καρδίᾳ μου, καὶ δοξάσω τὸ ὄνομά σου εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα.

13Righteousness goes before him, and prepares the way for his steps.

13Ὅτι τὸ ἔλεός σου μέγα ἐπʼ ἐμὲ, καὶ ἐῤῥύσω τὴν ψυχήν μου ἐξ ᾅδου κατωτάτου.
