Psalms - Chapter 80 | King James Version (KJV)

  • 1. Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; thou that dwellest {cf15I between} the cherubims, shine forth.
  • 2. Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh stir up thy strength, and come {cf15I and} save us.
  • 3. Turn us again, O God, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.
  • 4. O LORD God of hosts, how long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy people?
  • 5. Thou feedest them with the bread of tears; and givest them tears to drink in great measure.
  • 6. Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbours: and our enemies laugh among themselves.
  • 7. Turn us again, O God of hosts, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.
  • 8. Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt: thou hast cast out the heathen, and planted it.
  • 9. Thou preparedst {cf15I room} before it, and didst cause it to take deep root, and it filled the land.
  • 10. The hills were covered with the shadow of it, and the boughs thereof {cf15I were like} the goodly cedars.
  • 11. She sent out her boughs unto the sea, and her branches unto the river.
  • 12. Why hast thou {cf15I then} broken down her hedges, so that all they which pass by the way do pluck her?
  • 13. The boar out of the wood doth waste it, and the wild beast of the field doth devour it.
  • 14. Return, we beseech thee, O God of hosts: look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this vine;
  • 15. And the vineyard which thy right hand hath planted, and the branch {cf15I that} thou madest strong for thyself.
  • 16. {cf15I It is} burned with fire, {cf15I it is} cut down: they perish at the rebuke of thy countenance.
  • 17. Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, upon the son of man {cf15I whom} thou madest strong for thyself.
  • 18. So will not we go back from thee: quicken us, and we will call upon thy name.
  • 19. Turn us again, O LORD God of hosts, cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.
