1. Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel,You who lead Joseph like a flock;You who are enthroned between the cherubim, shine forth.
2. In the sight of Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh,stir up Your strength,and come and rescue us.
3. Restore us again, O God,and cause Your face to shine,and we shall be delivered.
4. O Lord God of Hosts,how long will You be angryagainst the prayers of Your people?
5. You have fed them with the bread of tearsand have given them tears to drink in great measure.
