[1] LORD, thou hast been favorable to 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.
[3] Thou hast taken away all thy wrath; thou hast withdrawn the fierceness of thine anger.
[4] Restore us, O God our Saviour, and cause thine anger toward us to cease.
[5] Be not angry with us for ever; hold not thine anger against all generations.
[6] Restore us and revive us, that thy people may rejoice in thee.
[7] Show us thy mercy, O LORD, and grant us thy salvation.
[8] We will hear what the LORD our God will speak; for he will speak peace to his people and to his saints, that they may not turn again to folly.
[9] Surely his salvation is near them that reverence him; let his glory 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 his goodness; and the land shall yield its fruits.
[13] And the righteous shall go before him; and he shall establish his ways upon the earth.
