In context

1For the choirmaster. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. 2You forgave the iniquity of Your people; 3You withheld all Your fury; 4Restore us, O God of our salvation, 5Will You be angry with us forever? 6Will You not revive us again, 7Show us Your loving devotion, O LORD, 8I will listen to what God the LORD will say; 9Surely His salvation is near to those who fear Him, 10Loving devotion and faithfulness have joined together; 11Faithfulness sprouts from the earth, 12The LORD will indeed provide what is good, 13Righteousness will go before Him
