Psalms 80:9-17

9You cleared the ground for it; it took root, and filled the land.

10The mountains were covered by its shadow, the highest cedars by its branches.

11Its branches reached the Mediterranean Sea, and its shoots the Euphrates River.

12Why did you break down its walls, so that all who pass by pluck its fruit?

13The wild boars of the forest ruin it; the insects of the field feed on it.

14O God, invincible warrior, come back! Look down from heaven and take notice! Take care of this vine,

15the root your right hand planted, the shoot you made to grow!

16It is burned and cut down. They die because you are displeased with them.

17May you give support to the one you have chosen, to the one whom you raised up for yourself!
