80:1  Hear us, Shepherd of Israel, you who lead Joseph like a flock, you who sit above the cherubim, shine forth.
80:2  Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh, stir up your might! Come to save us!
80:3  Turn us again, God. Cause your face to shine, and we will be saved.
80:4  Yahweh God of Armies, How long will you be angry against the prayer of your people?
80:5  You have fed them with the bread of tears, and given them tears to drink in large measure.
80:6  You make us a source of contention to our neighbors. Our enemies laugh among themselves.
80:7  Turn us again, God of Armies. Cause your face to shine, and we will be saved.
80:8  You brought a vine out of Egypt. You drove out the nations, and planted it.
80:9  You cleared the ground for it. It took deep root, and filled the land.
80:10  The mountains were covered with its shadow. Its boughs were like God's cedars.
80:11  It sent out its branches to the sea, Its shoots to the River.
80:12  Why have you broken down its walls, so that all those who pass by the way pluck it?
80:13  The boar out of the wood ravages it. The wild animals of the field feed on it.
80:14  Turn again, we beg you, God of Armies. Look down from heaven, and see, and visit this vine,
80:15  the stock which your right hand planted, the branch that you made strong for yourself.
80:16  It's burned with fire. It's cut down. They perish at your rebuke.
80:17  Let your hand be on the man of your right hand, on the son of man whom you made strong for yourself.
80:18  So we will not turn away from you. Revive us, and we will call on your name.
80:19  Turn us again, Yahweh God of Armies. Cause your face to shine, and we will be saved. For the Chief Musician. On an instrument of Gath. By Asaph.
