Context of Psalms 85:7

5Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations? 6Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee? Shew us thy mercy, O Yhwh, and grant us thy salvation. 8I will hear what God Yhwh will speak: for he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly. 9Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him; that glory may dwell in our land.
