Psalms 80

Psalm 80

To the Overcomer upon Shoshannim, {lilies} A testimony of Asaph: A Psalm.

1¶ Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; thou that dwellest between the cherubim, shine forth.

2In the presence of Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh stir up thy strength and come and save us.

3Turn us again, O God, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.

4O Lord God of the hosts, how long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy people?

5Thou dost feed them with the bread of tears and give them tears to drink in great measure.

6Thou dost make us a strife unto our neighbours, and our enemies laugh at us among themselves.

7Turn us again, O God of the hosts, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.

8¶ Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt; thou hast cast out the Gentiles and planted it.

9Thou didst prepare room before it and didst cause it to take deep root, and it filled the earth.

10The hills were covered with the shadow of it, and its boughs were like the cedars of God.

11She sent out her boughs unto the sea and her branches unto the river.

12Why hast thou then broken down her hedges, so that all those who pass by the way pluck her?

13The boar out of the wood wastes it, and the wild beast of the field devours it.

14Return, we beseech thee, O God of the hosts: look down from heaven and behold and visit this vine

15and the vineyard which thy right hand has planted and the branch that thou didst make strong for thyself.

16 It is burned with fire; it is cut down; they perish at the rebuke of thy countenance.

17Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, upon the son of man whom thou didst make strong for thyself,

18so we will not go back from thee. Thou shalt quicken us, and we will call upon thy name.

19Turn us again, O Lord God of the hosts, cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.
