|
1 |
Give ear, O Shepherd
of Israel,
You who lead Joseph like a flock;
You who dwell between the cherubim, shine forth!
|
|
|
2 |
Before Ephraim,
Benjamin, and Manasseh,
Stir up Your strength,
And come and save us!
|
|
3 |
Restore us, O God;
Cause Your face to shine,
And we shall be saved!
|
|
4 |
O LORD God of hosts,
How long will You be angry
Against the prayer of Your people?
|
|
5 |
You have fed them
with the bread of tears,
And given them tears to drink in great measure.
|
|
6 |
You have made us a
strife to our neighbours,
And our enemies laugh among themselves.
|
|
7 |
Restore us, O God of
hosts;
Cause Your face to shine,
And we shall be saved!
|
|
8 |
You have brought a
vine out of Egypt;
You have cast out the nations, and planted it.
|
|
9 |
You prepared room
for it,
And caused it to take deep root,
And it filled the land.
|
|
10 |
The hills were
covered with its shadow,
And the mighty cedars with its boughs.
|
|
11 |
She sent out her
boughs to the Sea,
And her branches to the River.
|
|
12 |
Why have You broken
down her hedges,
So that all who pass by the way pluck her fruit?
|
|
13 |
The boar out of the
woods uproots it,
And the wild beast of the field devours it.
|
|
14 |
Return, we beseech
You, O God of hosts;
Look down from heaven and see,
And visit this vine
|
|
15 |
And the vineyard
which Your right hand has planted,
And the branch that You made strong for Yourself.
|
|
16 |
It is burned with
fire, it is cut down;
They perish at the rebuke of Your countenance.
|
|
17 |
Let Your hand be
upon the man of Your right hand,
Upon the son of man whom You made strong for Yourself.
|
|
18 |
Then we will not
turn back from You;
Revive us, and we will call upon Your name.
|
|
19 |
Restore us, O LORD
God of hosts;
Cause Your face to shine,
And we shall be saved!
