PSAL. LXXX.

[1]

Hear, Israels shepherd, like a flock

thou that dost Joseph guide;
Shine forth, O thou that dost between
the cherubims abide.

2

In Ephraims and Benjamins,

and in Manassehs sight,
O come for our salvation
stir up thy strength and might.

3

Turn us again, O Lord, our God,

and upon us vouchsafe
To make thy countenance to shine,
and so we shal be safe.

4

O Lord of hosts, Almighty God,

how long shal kindled be
Thy wrath against the prayer made
by thine own folk to thee?

5

Thou tears of sorrow gives to them

in stead of bread, to eat;
Yea, tears in stead of drink thou gives,
to them in measure great.

6

Thou makest us a strife unto

our neighbours round about:
Our enemies among themselves
at us do laugh and flout.

7

Turn us again, O God of hosts,

and upon us vouchsafe
To make thy countenance to shine,
and so we shal be safe.

8

A vine frō Egypt brought thou hast,

by thine outstretched hand:
And thou the heathen out didst cast,
to plant it in their land.

9

Before it thou a room didst make,

where it might grow and stand;
Thou causedst it deep root to take,
and it did fil the land.

10

The mountains vail'd werewth its shade

as with a covering:
Like goodly Ceders were the boughs,
which out from it did spring.

11

Upon the one hand, to the sea

her boughs she did out send;
On th'other side, unto the floud
her branches did extend.

12

Why hast thou then thus broken down

and tane her hedge away?
So that all passengers do pluck,
and make of her a prey.

13

The boar who frō the forrest comes

doth waste it at his pleasure:
The wilde beast of the field also
devours it out of measure.

14

O God of hosts, we thee beseech

return now unto thine;
Look down frō heav'n in love, behold
and visit this thy vine:

15

This vineyard wch thine own right hand

hath planted us among:
And that same branch, wch for thy self
thou hast made to be strong.

16

Burnt up it is with flaming fire,

it also is cut down:
They utterly are perished
when as thy face doth frown.

17

O let thy hand be stil upon

the man of thy right hand;
The son of man, whom for thy self
thou madest strong to stand.

18

So henceforth we wil not go back,

nor turn from thee at all:
O do thou quicken us, and we
upon thy Name wil cal.

19

Turn us again, Lord God of hosts,

and upon us vouchsafe
To make thy countenance to shine,
and so we shal be safe.
