80:1  For the leader. Set to “Lilies.” A testimony. A psalm of Asaf:
80:2  Shepherd of Isra’el, listen! You who lead Yosef like a flock, you whose throne is on the k’ruvim, shine out!
80:3  Before Efrayim, Binyamin and M’nasheh, rouse your power; and come to save us.
80:4  God, restore us! Make your face shine, and we will be saved.
80:5  Adonai, God of armies, how long will you be angry with your people’s prayers?
80:6  You have fed them tears as their bread and made them drink tears in abundance.
80:7  You make our neighbors fight over us, and our enemies mock us.
80:8  God of armies, restore us! Make your face shine, and we will be saved.
80:9  You brought a vine out of Egypt, you expelled the nations and planted it,
80:10  you cleared a space for it; then it took root firmly and filled the land.
80:11  The mountains were covered with its shade, the mighty cedars with its branches;
80:12  It put out branches as far as the sea and shoots to the [Euphrates] River.
80:13  Why did you break down [the vineyard’s] wall, so that all passing by can pluck [its fruit]?
80:14  The boar from the forest tears it apart; wild creatures from the fields feed on it.
80:15  God of armies, please come back! Look from heaven, see, and tend this vine!
80:16  Protect what your right hand planted, the son you made strong for yourself.
80:17  It is burned by fire, it is cut down; they perish at your frown of rebuke.
80:18  Help the man at your right hand, the son of man you made strong for yourself.
80:19  Then we won’t turn away from you — if you revive us, we will call on your name.
