Psalms 80

Hear us, Shepherd of Israel, you who lead Joseph like a flock, you who sit above the cherubim, shine out.

Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, Thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; Thou that sittest above the cherubim, shine forth.

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

Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh, stir up thy might, And come to save us.

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

Turn us again, O God; And cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.

LORD God of Armies, how long will you be angry against the prayer of your people?

O Jehovah God of hosts, How long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy people?

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

Thou hast fed them with the bread of tears, And given them tears to drink in large measure.

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

Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbors; And our enemies laugh among themselves.

Turn us again, God of Armies. Cause your face to shine, and we will be saved.

Turn us again, O God of hosts; And cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.

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

Thou broughtest a vine out of Egypt: Thou didst drive out the nations, and plantedst it.

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

Thou preparedst room before it, And it took deep root, and filled the land.

The mountains were covered with its shadow. Its boughs were like God’s cedars.

The mountains were covered with the shadow of it, And the boughs thereof were like cedars of God.

It sent out its branches to the sea, its shoots to the River.

It sent out its branches unto the sea, And its shoots unto the River.

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

Why hast thou broken down its walls, So that all they that pass by the way do pluck it?

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

The boar out of the wood doth ravage it, And the wild beasts of the field feed on it.

Turn again, we beg you, God of Armies. Look down from heaven, and see, and visit this vine,

Turn again, we beseech thee, O God of hosts: Look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this vine,

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

And the stock which thy right hand planted, And the branch that thou madest strong for thyself.

It’s burned with fire. It’s cut down. They perish at your rebuke.

It is burned with fire, it is cut down: They perish at the rebuke of thy countenance.

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

Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, Upon the son of man whom thou madest strong for thyself.

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

So shall we not go back from thee: Quicken thou us, and we will call upon thy name.

Turn us again, LORD God of Armies. Cause your face to shine, and we will be saved.

Turn us again, O Jehovah God of hosts; Cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
