NHEBME - Psalms - 80

80:1  Hear us, Shepherd of Israel, you who lead Joseph like a flock, you who sit above the cherubim, shine forth.

80:2  Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh, stir up your might! Come to save us!

80:3  Turn us again, God. Cause your face to shine, and we will be saved.

80:4  Lord God of Hosts, How long will you be angry against the prayer of your people?

80:5  You have fed them with the bread of tears, and given them tears to drink in large measure.

80:6  You make us a source of contention to our neighbors. Our enemies laugh among themselves.

80:7  Turn us again, God of Hosts. Cause your face to shine, and we will be saved.

80:8  You brought a vine out of Egypt. You drove out the nations, and planted it.

80:9  You cleared the ground for it. It took deep root, and filled the land.

80:10  The mountains were covered with its shadow. Its boughs were like God's cedars.

80:11  It sent out its branches to the sea, Its shoots to the River.

80:12  Why have you broken down its walls, so that all those who pass by the way pluck it?

80:13  The boar out of the wood ravages it. The wild animals of the field feed on it.

80:14  Turn again, we beg you, God of Hosts. Look down from heaven, and see, and visit this vine,

80:15  the stock which your right hand planted, the branch that you made strong for yourself.

80:16  It's burned with fire. It's cut down. They perish at your rebuke.

80:17  Let your hand be on the man of your right hand, on the son of man whom you made strong for yourself.

80:18  So we will not turn away from you. Revive us, and we will call on your name.

80:19  Turn us again, Lord God of Hosts. Cause your face to shine, and we will be saved.
