Psalms - Chapter 80 - A Conservative Version
- Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou who lead Joseph like a flock. Thou who sit [above] the cherubim, shine forth.
- Stir up thy might before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh, and come to save us.
- Turn us again, O God, and cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
- O LORD God of hosts, how long will thou be angry against the prayer of thy people?
- Thou have fed them with the bread of tears, and given them tears to drink in large measure.
- Thou make us hatred to our neighbors, and our enemies laugh among themselves.
- Turn us again, O God of hosts, and cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
- Thou brought a vine out of Egypt. Thou drove out the nations, and planted it.
- Thou prepared [place] before it, and it took deep root, and filled the land.
- The mountains were covered with the shadow of it, and the boughs of it were [like] cedars of God.
- It sent out its branches to the sea, and its shoots to the River.
- Why have thou broken down its walls, so that all those who pass by the way pluck it?
- The boar out of the wood ravages it, and the wild beasts of the field feed on it.
- Turn again, we beseech thee, O God of hosts. Look down from heaven, and, behold, and visit this vine,
- and the stock which thy right hand planted, and the branch that thou made strong for thyself.
- It is burned with fire, it is cut down. They perish at the rebuke of thy countenance.
- Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, upon the son of man whom thou made strong for thyself,
- so shall we not go back from thee. Revive thou us, and we will call upon thy name.
- Turn us again, O LORD God of hosts, cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
