Psalms 80
1 Unto the end. For those who will be changed. The testimony of Asaph. A Psalm. The One who reigns over Israel: Be attentive. For you lead Joseph like a sheep. The One who sits upon the cherubim: Shine forth
Unto the end, for them that shall he changed, a testimony for Asaph, a psalm. Give ear, O thou that rulest Israel: thou that leadest Joseph like a sheep. Thou that sittest upon the cherubims, shine forth
2 in the presence of Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh. Awaken your power and draw near, so as to accomplish our salvation.
Before Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasses. Stir up thy might, and come to save us.
3 Convert us, O God. And reveal your face, and we will be saved.
Convert us, O God: and shew us thy face, and we shall be saved.
4 O Lord, God of hosts, how long will you be angry over the prayer of your servant?
O Lord God of hosts, how long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy servant?
5 How long will you feed us the bread of tears, and give us to drink a full measure of tears?
How long wilt thou feed us with the bread of tears: and give us for our drink tears in measure?
6 You have set us as a contradiction to our neighbors. And our enemies have ridiculed us.
Thou hast made us to be a contradiction to our neighbours: and our enemies have scoffed at us.
7 O God of hosts, convert us. And reveal your face, and we will be saved.
O God of hosts, convert us: and shew thy face, and we shall be saved.
8 You have transferred a vineyard from Egypt. You have cast out the Gentiles, and planted it.
Thou hast brought a vineyard out of Egypt: thou hast cast cut the Gentiles and planted it.
9 You were the leader of the journey in its sight. You planted its roots, and it filled the earth.
Thou wast the guide of its journey in its sight: thou plantedst the roots thereof, and it filled the land.
10 Its shadow covered the hills, and its branches covered the cedars of God.
The shadow of it covered the hills: and the branches thereof the cedars of God.
11 It extended its new branches even to the sea, and its new seedlings even to the river.
It stretched forth its branches unto the sea, and its boughs unto the river.
12 So then, why have you destroyed its walls, so that all those who pass by the way gather its grapes?
Why hast thou broken down the hedge thereof, so that all they who pass by the way do pluck it?
13 The wild boar of the forest has trampled it, and a single wild beast has laid waste to it.
The boar out of the wood hath laid it waste: and a singular wild beast hath devoured it.
14 Turn back, O God of hosts. Look down from heaven, and see, and visit this vineyard;
Turn again, O God of hosts, look down from heaven, and see, and visit this vineyard:
15 and complete what your right hand has planted, and look upon the son of man, whom you have confirmed for yourself.
And perfect the same which thy right hand hath planted: and upon the son of man whom thou hast confirmed for thyself.
16 Whatever has been set on fire and dug under will perish at the rebuke of your countenance.
Things set on fire and dug down shall perish at the rebuke of thy countenance.
17 Let your hand be over the man on your right, and over the son of man, whom you have confirmed for yourself.
Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand: and upon the son of man whom thou hast confirmed for thyself.
18 For we do not depart from you, and you will revive us. And we will invoke your name.
And we depart not from thee, thou shalt quicken us: and we will call upon thy name.
19 O Lord, God of hosts, convert us. And reveal your face, and we will be saved.
O Lord God of hosts, convert us: and shew thy face, and we shall be saved.
