|
|
|
1 |
Give ear, O Shepherd
of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; thou that dwellest between
the cherubims, shine forth.
|
|
|
2 |
Before Ephraim and
Benjamin and Manasseh stir up thy strength, and come and save us.
|
|
3 |
Turn us again, O
God, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.
|
|
4 |
O LORD God of hosts,
how long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy people?
|
|
5 |
Thou feedest them
with the bread of tears; and givest them tears to drink in great measure.
|
|
6 |
Thou makest us a
strife unto our neighbours: 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 hast brought a
vine out of Egypt: thou hast cast out the heathen, and planted it.
|
|
9 |
Thou preparedst room
before it, and didst cause it to take deep root, and it filled the land.
|
|
10 |
The hills were
covered with the shadow of it, and the boughs thereof were like the goodly
cedars.
|
|
11 |
She sent out her
boughs unto the sea, and her branches unto the river.
|
|
12 |
Why hast thou then
broken down her hedges, so that all they which pass by the way do pluck her?
|
|
13 |
The boar out of the
wood doth waste it, and the wild beast of the field doth devour it.
|
|
14 |
Return, we beseech
thee, O God of hosts: look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this
vine;
|
|
15 |
And 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.
|
|
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 will not we go
back from thee: quicken us, and we will call upon thy name.
|
|
19 |
Turn us again, O
LORD God of hosts, cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.
