| 1Listen, Shepherd of Israel, who leads Joseph like a flock; you who sit enthroned between the cherubim, shine | 1To the chief Musician upon ShoshannimEduth, A Psalm of Asaph. Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; thou that dwellest between the cherubims, shine forth. |
| 2on Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh. Rally your power and come to save us. | 2Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh stir up thy strength, and come and save us. |
| 3Restore us, God; make your face shine on us, so that we may be saved. | 3Turn us again, O God, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved. |
| 4LORD God of Armies, how long will you be angry with your people's prayers? | 4O LORD God of hosts, how long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy people? |
| 5You fed them the bread of tears and gave them a full measure of tears to drink. | 5Thou feedest them with the bread of tears; and givest them tears to drink in great measure. |
| 6You put us at odds with our neighbors; our enemies mock us. | 6Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbours: and our enemies laugh among themselves. |
| 7Restore us, God of Armies; make your face shine on us, so that we may be saved. | 7Turn us again, O God of hosts, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved. |
| 8You dug up a vine from Egypt; you drove out the nations and planted it. | 8Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt: thou hast cast out the heathen, and planted it. |
| 9You cleared a place for it; it took root and filled the land. | 9Thou preparedst room before it, and didst cause it to take deep root, and it filled the land. |
| 10The mountains were covered by its shade, and the mighty cedars with its branches. | 10The hills were covered with the shadow of it, and the boughs thereof were like the goodly cedars. |
| 11It sent out sprouts toward the Sea and shoots toward the River. | 11She sent out her boughs unto the sea, and her branches unto the river. |
| 12Why have you broken down its walls so that all who pass by pick its fruit? | 12Why hast thou then broken down her hedges, so that all they which pass by the way do pluck her? |
| 13Boars from the forest tear at it and creatures of the field feed on it. | 13The boar out of the wood doth waste it, and the wild beast of the field doth devour it. |
| 14Return, God of Armies. Look down from heaven and see; take care of this vine, | 14Return, we beseech thee, O God of hosts: look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this vine; |
| 15the root your right hand planted, the son that you made strong for yourself. | 15And the vineyard which thy right hand hath planted, and the branch that thou madest strong for thyself. |
| 16It was cut down and burned; they perish at the rebuke of your countenance. | 16It is burned with fire, it is cut down: they perish at the rebuke of thy countenance. |
| 17Let your hand be with the man at your right hand, with the son of man you have made strong for yourself. | 17Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, upon the son of man whom thou madest strong for thyself. |
| 18Then we will not turn away from you; revive us, and we will call on your name. | 18So will not we go back from thee: quicken us, and we will call upon thy name. |
| 19Restore us, LORD, God of Armies; make your face shine on us, so that we may be saved. | 19Turn us again, O LORD God of hosts, cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved. |
