| [To the choirmaster: according to Lilies. A Testimony of Asaph. A Psalm. ] | Prayer for National Deliverance. Psalm 80(v79) | ||
| Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou who leadest Joseph like a flock! Thou who art enthroned upon the cherubim, shine forth | |||
| before E'phraim and Benjamin and Manas'seh! Stir up thy might, and come to save us! | |||
| Restore us, O God; let thy face shine, that we may be saved! | |||
| O LORD God of hosts, how long wilt thou be angry with thy people's prayers? | |||
| Thou hast fed them with the bread of tears, and given them tears to drink in full measure. | |||
| Thou dost make us the scorn of our neighbors; and our enemies laugh among themselves. | |||
| Restore us, O God of hosts; let thy face shine, that we may be saved! | |||
| Thou didst bring a vine out of Egypt; thou didst drive out the nations and plant it. | |||
| Thou didst clear the ground for it; it took deep root and filled the land. | |||
| The mountains were covered with its shade, the mighty cedars with its branches; | |||
| it sent out its branches to the sea, and its shoots to the River. | |||
| Why then hast thou broken down its walls, so that all who pass along the way pluck its fruit? | |||
| The boar from the forest ravages it, and all that move in the field feed on it. | |||
| Turn again, O God of hosts! Look down from heaven, and see; have regard for this vine, | |||
| the stock which thy right hand planted. | |||
| They have burned it with fire, they have cut it down; may they perish at the rebuke of thy countenance! | |||
| But let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, the son of man whom thou hast made strong for thyself! | |||
| Then we will never turn back from thee; give us life, and we will call on thy name! | |||
| Restore us, O Lord God of hosts! let thy face shine, that we may be saved! | |||
