Psalms 85:8

¶ I will hear what God the LORD will speak: for he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly.

I will hear {H8085}{H8799)} what God {H410} the LORD {H3068} will speak {H1696}{H8762)}: for he will speak {H1696}{H8762)} peace {H7965} unto his people {H5971}, and to his saints {H2623}: but let them not turn again {H7725}{H8799)} to folly {H3690}.

I am listening. What will God, ADONAI, say? For he will speak peace to his people, to his holy ones -but only if they don't relapse into folly.

I will listen to what God the LORD will say; for He will surely speak peace to His people and His saints; He will not let them return to folly.

I will hear what God Jehovah will speak; For he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints: But let them not turn again to folly.
