Psalms 80
King James Version

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.
