Old Testament

Psalms 80 Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650)

To the chief musician upon Shoshannim, Eduth,

1. Hear, Isr'el's Shepherd! like a flockthou that dost Joseph guide;Shine forth, O thou that dost betweenthe cherubims abide.

2. In Ephraim's, and Benjamin'sand in Manasseh's sight,O come for our salvation;stir up thy strength and might.

3. Turn us again, O Lord our God,and upon us vouchsafeTo make thy countenance to shine,and so we shall be safe.

4. O Lord of hosts, almighty God,how long shall kindled beThy wrath against the prayer madeby thine own folk to thee?

5. Thou tears of sorrow giv'st to theminstead of bread to eat;Yea, tears instead of drink thou giv'stto them in measure great.

6. Thou makest us a strife untoour neighbours round about;Our enemies among themselvesat us do laugh and flout.

7. Turn us again, O God of hosts,and upon us vouchsafeTo make thy countenance to shine,and so we shall be safe.

8. A vine from 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 fill the land.

10. The mountains vail'd were with its shade,as with a covering;Like goodly cedars were the boughswhich out from it did spring.

11. Upon the one hand to the seaher boughs she did out send;On th' other side unto the floodher branches did extend.

12. Why hast thou then thus broken down,and ta'en her hedge away?So that all passengers do pluck,and make of her a prey.

13. The boar who from the forest comesdoth waste it at his pleasure;The wild beast of the field alsodevours it out of measure.

14. O God of hosts, we thee beseech,return now unto thine;Look down from heav'n in love, behold,and visit this thy vine:

15. This vineyard, which thine own right handhath planted us among;And that same branch, which for thyselfthou 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 still uponthe Man of thy right hand,The Son of man, whom for thyselfthou madest strong to stand.

18. So henceforth we will not go back,nor turn from thee at all:O do thou quicken us,and we upon thy name will call.

19. Turn us again,Lord God of hosts,and upon us vouchsafeTo make thy countenance to shine,and so we shall be safe.
