Psalms 80

Psalm 80^a

For the director of music. To the tune of “The Lilies of the Covenant.” Of Asaph. A psalm.

Hear us, Shepherd of Israel,
you who lead Joseph like a flock.
You who sit enthroned between the cherubim,
shine forth

For the choir director: A psalm of Asaph, to be sung to the tune “Lilies of the Covenant.”

Please listen, O Shepherd of Israel,
you who lead Joseph’s descendants like a flock.
O God, enthroned above the cherubim,
display your radiant glory

before Ephraim, Benjamin and Manasseh.
Awaken your might;
come and save us.

to Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh.
Show us your mighty power.
Come to rescue us!

Restore us, O God;
make your face shine on us,
that we may be saved.

Turn us again to yourself, O God.
Make your face shine down upon us.
Only then will we be saved.

How long, Lord God Almighty,
will your anger smolder
against the prayers of your people?

O LORD God of Heaven’s Armies,
how long will you be angry with our prayers?

You have fed them with the bread of tears;
you have made them drink tears by the bowlful.

You have fed us with sorrow
and made us drink tears by the bucketful.

You have made us an object of derisionb to our neighbors,
and our enemies mock us.

You have made us the scorna of neighboring nations.
Our enemies treat us as a joke.

Restore us, God Almighty;
make your face shine on us,
that we may be saved.

Turn us again to yourself, O God of Heaven’s Armies.
Make your face shine down upon us.
Only then will we be saved.

You transplanted a vine from Egypt;
you drove out the nations and planted it.

You brought us from Egypt like a grapevine;
you drove away the pagan nations and transplanted us into your land.

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

You cleared the ground for us,
and we took root and filled the land.

The mountains were covered with its shade,
the mighty cedars with its branches.

Our shade covered the mountains;
our branches covered the mighty cedars.

Its branches reached as far as the Sea,c
its shoots as far as the River.d

We spread our branches west to the Mediterranean Sea;
our shoots spread east to the Euphrates River.b

Why have you broken down its walls
so that all who pass by pick its grapes?

But now, why have you broken down our walls
so that all who pass by may steal our fruit?

Boars from the forest ravage it,
and insects from the fields feed on it.

The wild boar from the forest devours it,
and the wild animals feed on it.

Return to us, God Almighty!
Look down from heaven and see!
Watch over this vine,

Come back, we beg you, O God of Heaven’s Armies.
Look down from heaven and see our plight.
Take care of this grapevine

the root your right hand has planted,
the sone you have raised up for yourself.

that you yourself have planted,
this son you have raised for yourself.

Your vine is cut down, it is burned with fire;
at your rebuke your people perish.

For we are chopped up and burned by our enemies.
May they perish at the sight of your frown.

Let your hand rest on the man at your right hand,
the son of man you have raised up for yourself.

Strengthen the man you love,
the son of your choice.

Then we will not turn away from you;
revive us, and we will call on your name.

Then we will never abandon you again.
Revive us so we can call on your name once more.

Restore us, Lord God Almighty;
make your face shine on us,
that we may be saved.

Turn us again to yourself, O LORD God of Heaven’s Armies.
Make your face shine down upon us.
Only then will we be saved.
