Psalms 80:7 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 80:7

Turn us again, O God of hosts
The same with ( Psalms 80:3 ) , only instead of God there, here it is "the God of hosts"; the repetition of these words shows what was uppermost on the minds of God's people; what they were longing for, and most desirous of, namely, the light of God's countenance.

Psalms 80:7 In-Context

5 You put us on a diet of tears, bucket after bucket of salty tears to drink.

6 You make us look ridiculous to our friends; our enemies poke fun day after day.

7 God of the angel armies, come back! Smile your blessing smile: That will be our salvation.

8 Remember how you brought a young vine from Egypt, cleared out the brambles and briers and planted your very own vineyard?

9 You prepared the good earth, you planted her roots deep; the vineyard filled the land.
