Psalm 85

Show us your mercy, O Lord, *

and grant us your salvation.

I will hearken to what the Lord God will say, *

for he shall speak peace unto his people, and to his saints, that they turn not again.

For his salvation is near to those who fear him, *

that glory may dwell in our land.

Mercy and truth have met together; *

righteousness and peace have kissed each other.

Truth shall flourish out of the earth, *

and righteousness shall look down from heaven.

Indeed, the Lord shall show goodness, *

and our land shall give its increase.

Righteousness shall go before him, *

and he shall direct his going in the way.
