< Psalms 80 >

1 For the Chief Musician; set to Shoshannim Eduth. A Psalm of Asaph. Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; thou that sittest upon the cherubim, shine forth.
לַמְנַצֵּחַ אֶל־שֹׁשַׁנִּים עֵדוּת לְאָסָף מִזְמֽוֹר׃ רֹעֵה יִשְׂרָאֵל ׀ הַאֲזִינָה נֹהֵג כַּצֹּאן יוֹסֵף יֹשֵׁב הַכְּרוּבִים הוֹפִֽיעָה׃
2 Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh, stir up thy might, and come to save us.
לִפְנֵי אֶפְרַיִם ׀ וּבִנְיָמִן וּמְנַשֶּׁה עוֹרְרָה אֶת־גְּבוּרָתֶךָ וּלְכָה לִישֻׁעָתָה לָּֽנוּ׃
3 Turn us again, O God; and cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
אֱלֹהִים הֲשִׁיבֵנוּ וְהָאֵר פָּנֶיךָ וְנִוָּשֵֽׁעָה׃
4 O LORD God of hosts, how long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy people?
יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהִים צְבָאוֹת עַד־מָתַי עָשַׁנְתָּ בִּתְפִלַּת עַמֶּֽךָ׃
5 Thou hast fed them with the bread of tears, and given them tears to drink in large measure.
הֶאֱכַלְתָּם לֶחֶם דִּמְעָה וַתַּשְׁקֵמוֹ בִּדְמָעוֹת שָׁלִֽישׁ׃
6 Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbours: and our enemies laugh among themselves.
תְּשִׂימֵנוּ מָדוֹן לִשְׁכֵנֵינוּ וְאֹיְבֵינוּ יִלְעֲגוּ־לָֽמוֹ׃
7 Turn us again, O God of hosts; and cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
אֱלֹהִים צְבָאוֹת הֲשִׁיבֵנוּ וְהָאֵר פָּנֶיךָ וְנִוָּשֵֽׁעָה׃
8 Thou broughtest a vine out of Egypt: thou didst drive out the nations, and plantedst it.
גֶּפֶן מִמִּצְרַיִם תַּסִּיעַ תְּגָרֵשׁ גּוֹיִם וַתִּטָּעֶֽהָ׃
9 Thou preparedst [room] before it, and it took deep root, and filled the land.
פִּנִּיתָ לְפָנֶיהָ וַתַּשְׁרֵשׁ שׇׁרָשֶׁיהָ וַתְּמַלֵּא־אָֽרֶץ׃
10 The mountains were covered with the shadow of it, and the boughs thereof were [like] cedars of God.
כָּסּוּ הָרִים צִלָּהּ וַעֲנָפֶיהָ אַֽרְזֵי־אֵֽל׃
11 She sent out her branches unto the sea, and her shoots unto the River.
תְּשַׁלַּח קְצִירֶהָ עַד־יָם וְאֶל־נָהָר יוֹנְקוֹתֶֽיהָ׃
12 Why hast thou broken down her fences, so that all they which pass by the way do pluck her?
לָמָּה פָּרַצְתָּ גְדֵרֶיהָ וְאָרוּהָ כׇּל־עֹבְרֵי דָֽרֶךְ׃
13 The boar out of the wood doth ravage it, and the wild beasts of the field feed on it.
יְכַרְסְמֶנָּֽה חֲזִיר מִיָּ עַ ר וְזִיז שָׂדַי יִרְעֶֽנָּה׃
14 Turn again, we beseech thee, O God of hosts: look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this vine,
אֱלֹהִים צְבָאוֹת שֽׁוּב ־ נָא הַבֵּט מִשָּׁמַיִם וּרְאֵה וּפְקֹד גֶּפֶן זֹֽאת׃
15 And the stock which thy right hand hath planted, and the branch that thou madest strong for thyself.
וְ כַ נָּה אֲשֶׁר־נָטְעָה יְמִינֶךָ וְעַל־בֵּן אִמַּצְתָּה לָּֽךְ׃
16 It is burned with fire, it is cut down: they perish at the rebuke of thy countenance.
שְׂרֻפָה בָאֵשׁ כְּסוּחָה מִגַּעֲרַת פָּנֶיךָ יֹאבֵֽדוּ׃
17 Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, upon the son of man whom thou madest strong for thyself.
תְּֽהִי־יָדְךָ עַל־אִישׁ יְמִינֶךָ עַל־בֶּן־אָדָם אִמַּצְתָּ לָּֽךְ׃
18 So shall we not go back from thee: quicken thou us, and we will call upon thy name,
וְלֹֽא־נָסוֹג מִמֶּךָּ תְּחַיֵּנוּ וּבְשִׁמְךָ נִקְרָֽא׃
19 Turn us again, O LORD God of hosts; cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהִים צְבָאוֹת הֲשִׁיבֵנוּ הָאֵר פָּנֶיךָ וְנִוָּשֵֽׁעָה׃
