Psalm 85
1You have been gracious to your land, O LORD, *
you have restored the good fortune of Jacob.

2You have forgiven the iniquity of your people *
and blotted out all their sins.

3You have withdrawn all your fury *
and turned yourself from your wrathful indignation.

4Restore us then, O God our Savior; *
let your anger depart from us.

5Will you be displeased with us for ever? *
will you prolong your anger from age to age?

6Will you not give us life again, *
that your people may rejoice in you?

7 Show us your mercy, O LORD, *
and grant us your salvation.

8I will listen to what the LORD God is saying, *
for he is speaking peace to his faithful people
and to those who turn their hearts to him.

9Truly, his salvation is very near to those who fear him, *
that his glory may dwell in our land.

10Mercy and truth have met together; *
righteousness and peace have kissed each other.

11Truth shall spring up from the earth, *
and righteousness shall look down from heaven.

12The LORD will indeed grant prosperity, *
and our land will yield its increase.

13Righteousness shall go before him, *
and peace shall be a pathway for his feet.

A Collect for Saturdays
Almighty God, who after the creation of the world rested from all you works and sanctified a day of rest for all your creatures: Grant that we, putting away all earthly anxieties, may be duly prepared for the service of your sanctuary, and that our rest here upon earth may be a preparation for the eternal rest promised to your people in heaven; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
