Prayer that the Lord Will Restore Favor to the Land

To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.

1 Lord, You have been favorable to Your land;
You have abrought back the captivity of Jacob. 
2 You have forgiven the iniquity of Your people;
You have covered all their sin. Selah
3 You have taken away all Your wrath;
You have turned from the fierceness of Your anger.
4 aRestore us, O God of our salvation,
And cause Your anger toward us to cease. 
5 aWill You be angry with us forever?
Will You prolong Your anger to all generations? 
6 Will You not arevive us again,
That Your people may rejoice in You? 
7 Show us Your mercy, Lord,
And grant us Your salvation.
8 I will hear what God the Lord will speak,
For He will speak peace
To His people and to His saints;
But let them not turn back to1 folly. 
9 Surely aHis salvation is near to those who fear Him,
bThat glory may dwell in our land. 
10 Mercy and truth have met together;
aRighteousness and peace have kissed. 
11 Truth shall spring out of the earth,
And righteousness shall look down from heaven.
12 aYes, the Lord will give what is good;
And our land will yield its increase. 
13 Righteousness will go before Him,
And shall make His footsteps our pathway.
