Context of Psalms 80:7
5You have caused us to eat tears as our food. Buckets full of tears is what we drink. 6You have caused the people who live near us to laugh at us. Our enemies insult us. God Almighty, turn us to come back to you. Look at us with a smile on your face! Then we will be safe. 8You pulled us out from Egypt, like a vine that you dug out of the ground. You chased nations out of this land, and you planted us here. 9You prepared the ground ready for us. We put down roots like a vine. We grew well and we covered all the land.

Commentaries on Psalms 80:7
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 7Turn us again, O God of hosts - This verse is the same as Psalm 80:3, except that here the appeal is to the “God of hosts;” there, it is simply to “God.” This indicates greater earnestness; a deeper sense of the need of the interposition of God, indicated by the reference to his attribute as the leader of hosts or armies, and therefore able to save them.Read the comment
