Psalm 80:1–19

¹Listen, Shepherd of Israel,

who leads Joseph like a flock; ^s

You who sit enthroned on the cherubim, ^t

rise up ^u

²before Ephraim,

Benjamin, and Manasseh. ^vw

Rally Your power and come to save us. ^x

³Restore us, God;

look on us with favor,

and we will be saved. ^y

⁴Lord God of Hosts,

how long will You be angry

with Your people’s prayers? ^z

⁵You fed them the bread of tears

and gave them a full measure ^a

of tears to drink. ^b

⁶You make us quarrel with our neighbors;

our enemies make fun of us. ^c

⁷Restore us, God of Hosts;

look on us with favor, and we will be saved. ^d

⁸You uprooted a vine from Egypt;

You drove out the nations and planted it. ^e

⁹You cleared a place for it;

it took root and filled the land. ^f

¹⁰The mountains were covered by its shade,

and the mighty cedars ^gwith its branches. ^h

¹¹It sent out sprouts toward the Sea ⁱ

and shoots toward the River. ^jk

¹²Why have You broken down its walls

so that all who pass by pick its fruit? ^l

¹³The boar from the forest tears it

and creatures of the field feed on it. ^m

¹⁴Return, God of Hosts. ⁿ

Look down from heaven and see;

take care of this vine,

¹⁵the root ^oYour right hand has planted,

the shoot ^pthat You made strong for Yourself. ^q

¹⁶It was cut down and burned up; ^r

they ^sperish at the rebuke of Your countenance. ^t

¹⁷Let Your hand be with the man at Your right hand,

with the son of man

You have made strong for Yourself. ^u

¹⁸Then we will not turn away from You;

revive us, and we will call on Your name. ^v

¹⁹Restore us, Yahweh, the God of Hosts; ^w

look on us with favor, and we will be saved. ^x
