# Chapter 80
|
|
1 Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel,
|
|
You who lead Joseph like a flock;
|
|
You who dwell between the cherubim, shine forth!
|
|
2 Before Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh,
|
|
Stir up Your strength,
|
|
And come and save us!
|
|
3 Restore us, O God;
|
|
Cause Your face to shine,
|
|
And we shall be saved!
|
|
4 O Lord God of hosts,
|
|
How long will You be angry
|
|
Against the prayer of Your people?
|
|
5 You have fed them with the bread of tears,
|
|
And given them tears to drink in great measure.
|
|
6 You have made us a strife to our neighbors,
|
|
And our enemies laugh among themselves.
|
|
7 Restore us, O God of hosts;
|
|
Cause Your face to shine,
|
|
And we shall be saved!
|
|
8 You have brought a vine out of Egypt;
|
|
You have cast out the nations, and planted it.
|
|
9 You prepared room for it,
|
|
And caused it to take deep root,
|
|
And it filled the land.
|
|
10 The hills were covered with its shadow,
|
|
And the mighty cedars with its boughs.
|
|
11 She sent out her boughs to the Sea,
|
|
And her branches to the River.
|
|
12 Why have You broken down her hedges,
|
|
So that all who pass by the way pluck her fruit?
|
|
13 The boar out of the woods uproots it,
|
|
And the wild beast of the field devours it.
|
|
14 Return, we beseech You, O God of hosts;
|
|
Look down from heaven and see,
|
|
And visit this vine
|
|
15 And the vineyard which Your right hand has planted,
|
|
And the branch that You made strong for Yourself.
|
|
16 It is burned with fire, it is cut down;
|
|
They perish at the rebuke of Your countenance.
|
|
17 Let Your hand be upon the man of Your right hand,
|
|
Upon the son of man whom You made strong for Yourself.
|
|
18 Then we will not turn back from You;
|
|
Revive us, and we will call upon Your name.
|
|
19 Restore us, O Lord God of hosts;
|
|
Cause Your face to shine,
|
|
And we shall be saved! |
