9Surely his salvation is near those who fear him,

that his glory may dwell in our land.

10Love and faithfulness meet together;

righteousness and peace kiss each other.

11Faithfulness springs forth from the earth,

and righteousness looks down from heaven.

12The Lord will indeed give what is good,

and our land will yield its harvest.

13Righteousness goes before him

and prepares the way for his steps.
