To the chiefH5329 MusicianH5329 upon Shoshannimeduth,H7802 A PsalmH4210 of Asaph.H623 Give ear,H238 O ShepherdH7462 of Israel,H3478 you that leadH5090 JosephH3130 like a flock;H6629 you that dwellH3427 between the cherubim,H3742 shineH3313 forth.
2
BeforeH6440 EphraimH669 and BenjaminH1144 and ManassehH4519 stirH5782 up your strength,H1369 and comeH3212 and saveH3444 us.
3
TurnH7725 us again,H7725 O God,H430 and cause your faceH6440 to shine;H215 and we shall be saved.H3467
4
O LORDH3068 GodH430 of hosts,H6635 howH5704 longH5704 will you be angryH6225 against the prayerH8605 of your people?H5971
5
You feedH398 them with the breadH3899 of tears;H1832 and give them tearsH1832 to drinkH8248 in greatH7991 measure.H7991
6
You makeH7760 us a strifeH4066 to our neighbors:H7934 and our enemiesH341 laughH3932 among themselves.
7
TurnH7725 us again,H7725 O GodH430 of hosts,H6635 and cause your faceH6440 to shine;H215 and we shall be saved.H3467
8
You have broughtH5265 a vineH1612 out of Egypt:H4714 you have castH1644 out the heathen,H1471 and plantedH5193 it.
9
You preparedH6437 room beforeH6440 it, and did cause it to take deepH8328 root,H8327 and it filledH4390 the land.H776
10
The hillsH2022 were coveredH3680 with the shadowH6738 of it, and the boughsH6057 thereof were like the goodlyH410 cedars.H730
11
She sentH7971 out her boughsH7105 to the sea,H3220 and her branchesH3127 to the river.H5104
12
WhyH4100 have you then brokenH6555 down her hedges,H1447 so that allH3605 they which passH5674 by the wayH1870 do pluckH717 her?
13
The boarH2386 out of the woodH3293 does wasteH3765 it, and the wildH2123 beastH2123 of the fieldH7704 does devourH7462 it.
14
Return,H7725 we beseechH4994 you, O GodH430 of hosts:H6635 lookH5027 down from heaven,H8064 and behold,H7200 and visitH6485 thisH2063 vine;H1612
15
And the vineyardH3657 whichH834 your rightH3225 handH3225 has planted,H5193 and the branchH1121 that you made strongH553 for yourself.
16
It is burnedH8313 with fire,H784 it is cutH3683 down: they perishH6 at the rebukeH1606 of your countenance.H6440
17
Let your handH3027 be on the manH376 of your rightH3225 hand,H3225 on the sonH1121 of manH120 whom you made strongH553 for yourself.
18
So will not we goH5472 backH5472 from you: quickenH2421 us, and we will callH7121 on your name.H8034
19
TurnH7725 us again,H7725 O LORDH3068 GodH430 of hosts,H6635 cause your faceH6440 to shine;H215 and we shall be saved.H3467
