Psalms 80:1-19

1 1 2Listen, 3Shepherd of Israel, Who leads 4Joseph like a flock; You who 5are enthroned above the cherubim, shine forth!2Before 6Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh, 7awaken Your power, And come to save us!3God, 8restore us And 9make Your face shine upon us, 10and we will be saved.

4 11Lord God of armies, 12How long will You 13be angry with the prayer of Your people?5You have fed them with the 14bread of tears, And You have made them drink tears in 15large measure.6You make us 16an object of contention 17to our neighbors, And our enemies laugh among themselves.7God of armies, restore us And make Your face shine upon us, 18and we will be saved.

8You removed a 19vine from Egypt; You 20drove out the 21nations and 22planted it.9You 23cleared the ground before it, And it 24took deep root and filled the land.10The mountains were covered with its shadow, And 25the cedars of God with its 26branches.11It was sending out its branches 27to the sea And its shoots to the Euphrates River.12Why have You 28broken down its 29hedges, So that all who pass that way pick its fruit?13A boar from the forest 30eats it away, And whatever moves in the field feeds on it.

14God of armies, do 31turn back; 32Look down from heaven and see, and take care of this vine,15The 33 34shoot which Your right hand has planted, And of the 35son whom You have 36strengthened for Yourself.16It is 37burned with fire, it is cut down; They perish from the 38rebuke of Your face.17Let 39Your hand be upon the man of Your right hand, Upon the son of man whom You 40made strong for Yourself.18Then we will not 41turn back from You; 42Revive us, and we will call upon Your name.19Lord God of armies, 43restore us; Make Your face shine upon us, 44and we will be saved.
