For the choir director: according to “The Lilies.”a A testimony of Asaph.b A psalm.
who leads Joseph like a flock;c
you who sit enthroned between the cherubim,d
shinee 2 on Ephraim,
Benjamin, and Manasseh.f
Rally your power and come to save us.g
make your face shine on us,h
so that we may be saved.i
how long will you be angry
with your people’s prayers?j
5 You fed them the bread of tears
and gave them a full measureA
of tears to drink.k
6 You put us at odds with our neighbors;
our enemies mock us.l
make your face shine on us, so that we may be saved.m
8 You dug up a vine from Egypt;
you drove out the nations and planted it.n
it took root and filled the land.o
10 The mountains were covered by its shade,
and the mighty cedarsB with its branches.p
11 It sent out sprouts toward the SeaC
and shoots toward the River.D,q
12 Why have you broken down its walls
so that all who pass by pick its fruit?r
13 Boars from the forest tear at it
and creatures of the field feed on it.s
14 Return, God of Armies.t
Look down from heaven and see;
take care of this vine,
15 the rootE your right hand planted,
the sonF that you made strong for yourself.u
16 It was cut down and burned;
theyG perish at the rebuke of your countenance.v
17 Let your hand be with the man at your right hand,
with the son of man
you have made strong for yourself.w
18 Then we will not turn away from you;
revive us, and we will call on your name.x
19 Restore us, Lord, God of Armies;y
make your face shine on us, so that we may be saved.z

About Christian Standard BibleThe Christian Standard Bible (CSB) is a highly trustworthy, faithful translation that is proven to be the optimal blend of accuracy and readability. It’s as literal to the original as possible without sacrificing clarity. The CSB is poised to become the translation that pastors rely on and Bible readers turn to again and again to read and to share with others. The CSB is an original translation: more than 100 scholars from 17 denominations translated directly from the best available Hebrew, Greek and Aramaic source texts into English. Its source texts are the standard used by scholars and seminaries today. The CSB is trustworthy: the conservative, evangelical scholars of the CSB affirm the authority of Scripture as the inerrant Word of God and seek the highest level of faithfulness to the original and accuracy in their translation. These scholars and LifeWay, the non-profit ministry that stewards the CSB, also champion the Bible against cultural trends that would compromise its truths. The CSB is clear: it is as literal a translation of the ancient source texts as possible, but, in the many places throughout Scripture where a word-for-word rendering might obscure the meaning for a modern audience, it uses a more dynamic translation. In all cases, the intent is to convey the original meaning of God’s Word as faithfully and as clearly as possible. |
