Prayer that the Lord Will Restore Favor to the Land

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