¹Jehovah, thou hast been favorable unto thy land; Thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob.

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

³Thou hast taken away all thy wrath; Thou hast turned `thyself' from the fierceness of thine anger.

⁴Turn us, O God of our salvation, And cause thine indignation toward us to cease.

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

⁶Wilt thou not quicken us again, That thy people may rejoice in thee?

⁷Show us thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, And grant us thy salvation.

⁸I will hear what God Jehovah will speak; For he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints: But let them not turn again to folly.

⁹Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him, That glory may dwell in our land.

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

¹¹Truth springeth out of the earth; And righteousness hath looked down from heaven.

¹²Yea, Jehovah will give that which is good; And our land shall yield its increase.

¹³Righteousness shall go before him, And shall make his footsteps a way `to walk in'.
