Psalm 80

1 Hear us, Shepherd of Israel, you who lead Joseph like a flock. You who sit enthroned between the cherubim, shine forth

1 Listen, Shepherd, Israel's Shepherd - get all your Joseph sheep together. Throw beams of light from your dazzling throne

2 before Ephraim, Benjamin and Manasseh. Awaken your might; come and save us.

2 So Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh can see where they're going. Get out of bed - you've slept long enough! Come on the run before it's too late.

3 Restore us, O God; make your face shine on us, that we may be saved.

3 God, come back! Smile your blessing smile: That will be our salvation.

4 How long, LORD God Almighty, will your anger smolder against the prayers of your people?

4 God, God of the angel armies, how long will you smolder like a sleeping volcano while your people call for fire and brimstone?

5 You have fed them with the bread of tears; you have made them drink tears by the bowlful.

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

6 You have made us an object of derision to our neighbors, and our enemies mock us.

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

7 Restore us, God Almighty; make your face shine on us, that we may be saved.

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

8 You transplanted a vine from Egypt; you drove out the nations and planted it.

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

9 You cleared the ground for it, and it took root and filled the land.

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

10 The mountains were covered with its shade, the mighty cedars with its branches.

10 Your vine soared high and shaded the mountains, even dwarfing the giant cedars.

11 Its branches reached as far as the Sea,its shoots as far as the River.

11 Your vine ranged west to the Sea, east to the River.

12 Why have you broken down its walls so that all who pass by pick its grapes?

12 So why do you no longer protect your vine? Trespassers pick its grapes at will;

13 Boars from the forest ravage it, and insects from the fields feed on it.

13 Wild pigs crash through and crush it, and the mice nibble away at what's left.

14 Return to us, God Almighty! Look down from heaven and see! Watch over this vine,

14 God of the angel armies, turn our way! Take a good look at what's happened and attend to this vine.

15 the root your right hand has planted, the son you have raised up for yourself.

15 Care for what you once tenderly planted - the vine you raised from a shoot.

16 Your vine is cut down, it is burned with fire; at your rebuke your people perish.

16 And those who dared to set it on fire - give them a look that will kill!

17 Let your hand rest on the man at your right hand, the son of man you have raised up for yourself.

17 Then take the hand of your once-favorite child, the child you raised to adulthood.

18 Then we will not turn away from you; revive us, and we will call on your name.

18 We will never turn our back on you; breathe life into our lungs so we can shout your name!

19 Restore us, LORD God Almighty; make your face shine on us, that we may be saved.

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