| 2You forgave the iniquity of Your people; You covered all their sin. Selah. | 2You took away the iniquity of your people, forgiving all their sins Interlude |
| 3You withdrew all Your fury; You turned away from Your burning anger. | 3You withdrew all your wrath and turned away from your burning anger. |
| 4Restore us, O God of our salvation, And cause Your indignation toward us to cease. | 4Restore us, God of our salvation, and stop being angry with us. |
| 5Will You be angry with us forever? Will You prolong Your anger to all generations? | 5Will you be angry with us forever? Will you prolong your anger from generation to generation? |
| 6Will You not Yourself revive us again, That Your people may rejoice in You? | 6Will you restore our lives again so that your people may rejoice in you? |

| 8I will hear what God the LORD will say; For He will speak peace to His people, to His godly ones; But let them not turn back to folly. | 8Let me listen to what God, the LORD, says; for the LORD will promise peace to his people, to his holy ones; may they not return to foolishness. |
| 9Surely His salvation is near to those who fear Him, That glory may dwell in our land. | 9Surely, he will soon deliver those who fear him, for his glory will live in our land. |
