Psalms 85:10 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 85:10

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.
