CHAPTER 80

1
For the choirmaster.
To the tune of
“The Lilies of the Covenant.”
A Psalm
of Asaph.
Hear us,
O Shepherd
of Israel,
who leads
Joseph
like a flock;
You who sit enthroned
between the cherubim,
shine forth.
2
Before
Ephraim,
Benjamin,
and Manasseh,
rally
Your power
and come
to save
us.
3
Restore us,
O God,
and cause Your face
to shine upon us,
that we may be saved.
4
O LORD
God
of Hosts,
how long
will Your anger smolder
against the prayers
of Your people?
5
You fed them
with the bread
of tears
and made them drink
their full measure
of tears.
6
You make us
contend
with our neighbors;
our enemies
mock
us.
7
Restore us,
O God
of Hosts,
and cause Your face
to shine upon us,
that we may be saved.
8
You uprooted
a vine
from Egypt;
You drove out
the nations
and transplanted it.
9
You cleared the ground
for it,
and it took
root
and filled
the land.
10
The mountains
were covered
by its shade,
and the mighty
cedars
with its branches.
11
It sent out
its branches
to
the Sea,
and its shoots
toward
the River.
12
Why
have You broken down
its walls,
so that all
who pass by
pick its fruit?
13
The boar
from the forest
ravages it,
and the creatures
of the field
feed upon it.
14
Return,
O God
of Hosts,
we pray!
Look down
from heaven
and see!
Attend to
this
vine,
15
the root
Your right hand
has planted,
the branch
You have raised up
for Yourself.
16
Your vine has been cut down
and burned;
they perish
at the rebuke
of Your countenance.
17
Let Your hand
be
upon
the man
at Your right hand,
on
the son
of man
You have raised up
for Yourself.
18
Then we will not
turn away
from You;
revive us,
and we will call
on Your name.
19
Restore us,
O LORD
God
of Hosts;
cause Your face
to shine upon us,
that we may be saved.
