Communal Psalms of Lament, day 6 | Salmos Comunales de Lamento, día 6
from Psalms for Praying: An Invitation to Wholeness (Nan C. Merrill)
Psalm 85
O Beloved, how gracious You are
to your people;
You restore their souls time and
time again.
You forgive their distractions when
they wander far from You;
You give them new life.
Yes, You bless them and raise up
new hope;
You awaken their hearts
to love.
Yes, the Eternal Giver will grant
what is good,
and the lands will yield
abundantly.
Mercy and compassion are Love's way;
You will guide our footsteps
upon the path of peace
as we recognize with open hearts
that You are our peace.
de La Biblia de las Américas
Oh SEÑOR, tú mostraste favor a tu tierra, cambiaste la cautividad de Jacob.
Perdonaste la iniquidad de tu pueblo, cubriste todo su pecado. (Selah)
Retiraste toda tu furia, te apartaste del ardor de tu ira.
Restáuranos, oh Dios de nuestra salvación, haz cesar tu indignación contra nosotros.
Ciertamente el SEÑOR dará lo que es bueno, y nuestra tierra dará su fruto.
La justicia irá delante de El, y sus pasos pondrá por camino.
