80:1  (For the one directing. Set to The Lilies of the Edut. Of Asaph. Mizmor.) Give ear, O Ro’eh Yisroel, Thou that leadest Yosef like a tzon; Thou that art enthroned between the Keruvim, shine forth.
80:2  Before Ephrayim and Binyamin and Menasheh, Stir up Thy gevurah (might), and come and save us.
80:3  Turn us again, O Elohim, and cause Thy face to shine that we may be saved.
80:4  Hashem Elohim Tzva’os, ad mosai (how long) wilt Thou be angry against the tefillat amecha (prayer of Thy people)?
80:5  Thou feedest them with the lechem dimah (bread of tears); and givest them dima’ot (tears) to drink in great measure.
80:6  Thou makest us a madon (strife, contention) unto shcheneinu (our neighbors), and oyveinu (our enemies) mock us.
80:7  Turn us again, O Elohim Tzva’os, and cause Thy face to shine that we may be saved.
80:8  Thou hast brought a gefen (vine) out of Mitzrayim; Thou hast drove out Goyim, and planted it.
80:9  Thou preparedst room before it, and didst cause it to take deep root, and it filled the eretz.
80:10  The harim were covered with the tzel (shadow) of it, and the branches thereof were like the mighty cedars.
80:11  It sent out its branches unto the yam (sea, i.e., Mediterranean Sea) and its shoots unto the Nahar (river, i.e., the Euphrates).
80:12  Lammah (why) hast Thou then broken down her walls, so that all they which pass by the derech do pluck her?
80:13  The chazir (wild boar) out of the forest doth lay it waste, and the beasts of the sadeh doth devour it.
80:14  Shuv nah (return now), we beseech Thee, O Elohim Tzva’os; look down from Shomayim, and behold, and visit gefen zot (this vine);
80:15  And the stock which Thy Yamin (Right Hand) hath planted, and the Ben that Thou madest strong for Thyself.
80:16  It is burned with eish, it is cut down; they perish at the ge’arah (rebuke) of Thy countenance.
80:17  Let Thy Yad be upon the Ish Yeminecha (the Man of your Right Hand), upon the Ben Adam whom Thou madest strong for Thyself [cf Psalm 110:1; Dan 7:13].
80:18  So will we never turn back from Thee; revive us, and we will call upon Thy Shem.
80:19  Turn us again, Hashem Elohim Tzva’os; cause Thy face to shine that we may be saved.
