Psalms 80

1 TO THE OVERSEER. SET TO “LILIES OF TESTIMONY.” A PSALM OF ASAPH. Shepherd of Israel, give ear, || Leading Joseph as a flock, || Inhabiting the cherubs—shine out, 2 Before Ephraim, and Benjamin, and Manasseh, || Wake up Your might, and come for our salvation. 3 O God, cause us to turn back, || And cause Your face to shine, and we are saved. 4 YHWH, God of Hosts, until when? You have burned against the prayer of Your people. 5 You have caused them to eat bread of tears, || And cause them to drink || With tears a third time. 6 You make us a strife to our neighbors, || And our enemies mock at it. 7 God of Hosts, turn us back, || And cause Your face to shine, and we are saved. 8 You bring a vine out of Egypt, || You cast out nations, and plant it. 9 You have looked before it, and root it, || And it fills the land, 10 Hills have been covered with its shadow, || And its boughs are cedars of God. 11 It sends out its branches to the sea, || And its shoots to the river. 12 Why have You broken down its hedges, || And everyone passing by the way has plucked it? 13 A boar out of the forest tears it, || And a wild beast of the fields grazes it. 14 God of Hosts, turn back, we implore You, || Look from the heavens, and see, and inspect this vine, 15 And the root that Your right hand planted, || And the branch You made strong for Yourself, 16 Burned with fire—cut down, || They perish from the rebuke of Your face. 17 Let Your hand be on the man of Your right hand || On the son of man You have strengthened for Yourself. 18 And we do not go back from You, || You revive us, and in Your Name we call. 19 O YHWH, God of Hosts, turn us back, || Cause Your face to shine, and we are saved!
