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!

PSALM 80
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
To the chief musician upon Shoshannim, Eduth,
A Psalm of Asaph.
1Hear, Isr'el's Shepherd! like a flock
thou that dost Joseph guide;
Shine forth, O thou that dost between
the cherubims abide.
2In Ephraim's, and Benjamin's
and in Manasseh's sight,
O come for our salvation;
stir up thy strength and might.
3Turn us again, O Lord our God,
and upon us vouchsafe
To make thy countenance to shine,
and so we shall be safe.
4O Lord of hosts, almighty God,
how long shall kindled be
Thy wrath against the prayer made
by thine own folk to thee?
5Thou tears of sorrow giv'st to them
instead of bread to eat;
Yea, tears instead of drink thou giv'st
to them in measure great.
6Thou makest us a strife unto
our neighbours round about;
Our enemies among themselves
at us do laugh and flout.
7Turn us again, O God of hosts,
and upon us vouchsafe
To make thy countenance to shine,
and so we shall be safe.
8A vine from Egypt brought thou hast,
by thine outstretched hand;
And thou the heathen out didst cast,
to plant it in their land.
9Before it thou a room didst make,
where it might grow and stand;
Thou causedst it deep root to take,
and it did fill the land.
10The mountains vail'd were with its shade,
as with a covering;
Like goodly cedars were the boughs
which out from it did spring.
11Upon the one hand to the sea
her boughs she did out send;
On th' other side unto the flood
her branches did extend.
12Why hast thou then thus broken down,
and ta'en her hedge away?
So that all passengers do pluck,
and make of her a prey.
13The boar who from the forest comes
doth waste it at his pleasure;
The wild beast of the field also
devours it out of measure.
14O God of hosts, we thee beseech,
return now unto thine;
Look down from heav'n in love, behold,
and visit this thy vine:
15This vineyard, which thine own right hand
hath planted us among;
And that same branch, which for thyself
thou hast made to be strong.
16Burnt up it is with flaming fire,
it also is cut down:
They utterly are perished,
when as thy face doth frown.
17O let thy hand be still upon
the Man of thy right hand,
The Son of man, whom for thyself
thou madest strong to stand.
18So henceforth we will not go back,
nor turn from thee at all:
O do thou quicken us,
and we upon thy name will call.
19Turn us again,
Lord God of hosts,
and upon us vouchsafe
To make thy countenance to shine,
and so we shall be safe.
