Restore Us, O God
To the choirmaster: according to Lilies. A Testimony. Of Asaph, a Psalm.
1
Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, you who lead 1Joseph like 2a flock! You who are 3enthroned upon the cherubim, 4shine forth.
5
You have fed them with 12the bread of tears and given them tears to drink in full measure.
6
13You make us an object of contention for our 14neighbors, and our enemies laugh among themselves.
7
15Restore us, O God of hosts; let your face shine, that we may be saved!
9
You 18cleared the ground for it; it took deep root and filled the land.
10
The mountains were covered with its shade, the mighty cedars with its branches.
12
Why then have you 21broken down its walls, so that all who pass along the way pluck its fruit?
13
22The boar from the forest ravages it, and all that move in the field feed on it.
14
Turn again, O God of hosts! 23Look down from heaven, and see; have regard for this vine,
15
the stock that your right hand planted, and for the son whom you made strong for yourself.
16
They have 24burned it with fire; they have 25cut it down; may they perish at 26the rebuke of your face!
17
But 27let your hand be on the man of your right hand, the son of man whom you have made strong for yourself!
18
Then we shall not turn back from you; 28give us life, and we will call upon your name!
19
29Restore us, O LORD God of hosts! Let your face shine, that we may be saved!
