3Restore us, O God;
let your face shine,
that we may be saved!
4 O Yahweh God of hosts,
how long will you be angry with your people's prayers?
5You have fed them with the bread of tears,
and given them tears to drink in full measure.
6You make us the scorn of our neighbours;
and our enemies laugh among themselves.
7Restore us, O God of hosts;
let your face shine,
that we may be saved!
8You brought a vine out of Egypt;
you drove out the nations and planted it.
9You cleared the ground for it;
it took deep root and filled the land.
10The mountains were covered with its shade,
the mighty cedars with its branches;
11it sent out its branches to the sea,
and its shoots to the River.
12Why then have you broken down its walls,
so that all who pass along the way pluck its fruit?
13The boar from the forest ravages it,
and all that move in the field feed on it.
14Turn again, O God of hosts!
Look down from heaven, and see;
have regard for this vine,
15the stock which your right hand planted.
16They have burned it with fire, they have cut it down;
may they perish at the rebuke of your countenance!
17But let your hand be upon the man of your right hand,
the son of man whom you have made strong for yourself!
18Then we will never turn back from you;
give us life, and we will call on your name!
19Restore us, O Yahweh God of hosts!
let your face shine,
that we may be saved!
