- 0. For the Chief Musician, set to Shoshanim Eduth. A Psalm of Asaph.
- 1. Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, Thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; Thou that sittest [above] the cherubim, shine forth.
- 2. Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh, stir up thy might, And come to save us.
- 3. Turn us again, O God; And cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
- 4. O Jehovah God of hosts, How long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy people?
- 5. Thou hast fed them with the bread of tears, And given them tears to drink in large measure.
- 6. Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbors; And our enemies laugh among themselves.
- 7. Turn us again, O God of hosts; And cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
- 8. Thou broughtest a vine out of Egypt: Thou didst drive out the nations, and plantedst it.
- 9. Thou preparedst [room] before it, And it took deep root, and filled the land.
- 10. The mountains were covered with the shadow of it, And the boughs thereof were [like] cedars of God.
- 11. It sent out its branches unto the sea, And its shoots unto the River.
- 12. Why hast thou broken down its walls, So that all they that pass by the way do pluck it?
- 13. The boar out of the wood doth ravage it, And the wild beasts of the field feed on it.
- 14. Turn again, we beseech thee, O God of hosts: Look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this vine,
- 15. And the stock which thy right hand planted, And the branch that thou madest strong for thyself.
- 16. It is burned with fire, it is cut down: They perish at the rebuke of thy countenance.
- 17. Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, Upon the son of man whom thou madest strong for thyself.
- 18. So shall we not go back from thee: Quicken thou us, and we will call upon thy name.
- 19. Turn us again, O Jehovah God of hosts; Cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
