Psalm 80
80
A Prayer for Restoration
To the chief Musician upon Shoshan´nim–e´duth, A Psalm of Asaph.
1 #
Exod 25.22. Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel,
thou that leadest Joseph like a flock;
thou that dwellest between the cherubim, shine forth.
2Before E´phra-im and Benjamin and Manas´seh
stir up thy strength,
and come and save us.
3Turn us again, O God,
and cause thy face to shine;
and we shall be saved.
4O Lord God of hosts,
how long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy people?
5Thou feedest them with the bread of tears;
and givest them tears to drink in great measure.
6Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbors:
and our enemies laugh among themselves.
7Turn us again, O God of hosts,
and cause thy face to shine;
and we shall be saved.
8Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt:
thou hast cast out the heathen, and planted it.
9Thou preparedst room before it,
and didst cause it to take deep root,
and it filled the land.
10The hills were covered with the shadow of it,
and the boughs thereof were like the goodly cedars.
11She sent out her boughs unto the sea,
and her branches unto the river.
12Why hast thou then broken down her hedges,
so that all they which pass by the way do pluck her?
13The boar out of the wood doth waste it,
and the wild beast of the field doth devour it.
14Return, we beseech thee, O God of hosts:
look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this vine;
15and the vineyard which thy right hand hath 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.
17Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand,
upon the son of man whom thou madest strong for thyself.
18So will not we go back from thee:
quicken us, and we will call upon thy name.
19Turn us again, O Lord God of hosts,
cause thy face to shine;
and we shall be saved.

Psalm 80
80
Restore Us, O God
To the choirmaster: according to #Ps. 60, title Lilies. A Testimony. Of #Ps. 50, titleAsaph, a Psalm.
1Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel,
you who lead #Ps. 78:67; 81:5 Joseph like #[Ps. 95:7]; See Ps. 77:20 a flock.
You who are #Ps. 99:1; Ex. 25:22; 1 Sam. 4:4; 2 Sam. 6:2 enthroned upon the cherubim, #See Ps. 50:2shine forth.
2Before #See Num. 2:18-24 Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh,
# See Ps. 35:23 stir up your might
and #[Ps. 118:14, 21]come to save us!
3 # ver. 19; Ps. 60:1; 85:4; Lam. 5:21 Restore us,#80:3 Or Turn us again; also verses 7, 19 O God;
#
Num. 6:25; See Ps. 4:6 let your face shine, that we may be saved!
4O #See Ps. 59:5 Lord God of hosts,
# [Ps. 74:10; 79:5] how long will you be angry with your people’s prayers?
5You have fed them with #Ps. 42:3; 102:9; [1 Kgs. 22:27; Isa. 30:20]the bread of tears
and given them tears to drink in full measure.
6 # See Ps. 44:13 You make us an object of contention for our #See Ps. 44:13neighbors,
and our enemies laugh among themselves.
7 # [See ver. 3 above] Restore us, O God of hosts;
let your face shine, that we may be saved!
8You brought #Isa. 5:1; 27:2; Jer. 2:21; 12:10; Ezek. 17:6; Matt. 21:33; Mark 12:1; Luke 20:9 a vine out of Egypt;
you #See Ps. 44:2drove out the nations and planted it.
9You #[Josh. 24:12]cleared the ground for it;
it took deep root and filled the land.
10The mountains were covered with its shade,
the mighty cedars with its branches.
11It sent out its branches to #See Ps. 72:8the sea
and its shoots to #See Ps. 72:8the River.#80:11 That is, the Euphrates
12Why then have you #Ps. 89:40; Isa. 5:5broken down its walls,
so that all who pass along the way pluck its fruit?
13 # [Jer. 5:6] The boar from the forest ravages it,
and all that move in the field feed on it.
14Turn again, O God of hosts!
# [Isa. 63:15] Look down from heaven, and see;
have regard for this vine,
15the stock that your right hand planted,
and for the son whom you made strong for yourself.
16They have #Isa. 33:12 burned it with fire; they have #Isa. 33:12 cut it down;
may they perish at #Ps. 76:6; [Ps. 39:11]the rebuke of your face!
17But #Ps. 89:21let your hand be on the man of your right hand,
the son of man whom you have made strong for yourself!
18Then we shall not turn back from you;
# See Ps. 71:20 give us life, and we will call upon your name!
19 # ver. 3, 7 Restore us, O Lord God of hosts!
Let your face shine, that we may be saved!
