New King James VersionNET Bible
1To the Chief Musician. Set to “The Lilies.” A Testimony of Asaph. A Psalm. Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, You who lead Joseph like a flock; You who dwell between the cherubim, shine forth!1For the music director; according to the shushan-eduth style; a psalm of Asaph. O shepherd of Israel, pay attention, you who lead Joseph like a flock of sheep! You who sit enthroned above the winged angels, reveal your splendor!
2Before Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh, Stir up Your strength, And come and save us!2In the sight of Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh reveal your power! Come and deliver us!
3Restore us, O God; Cause Your face to shine, And we shall be saved!3O God, restore us! Smile on us! Then we will be delivered!
4O LORD God of hosts, How long will You be angry Against the prayer of Your people?4O LORD God, invincible warrior! How long will you remain angry at your people while they pray to you?
5You have fed them with the bread of tears, And given them tears to drink in great measure.5You have given them tears as food; you have made them drink tears by the measure.
6You have made us a strife to our neighbors, And our enemies laugh among themselves.6You have made our neighbors dislike us, and our enemies insult us.
7Restore us, O God of hosts; Cause Your face to shine, And we shall be saved!7O God, invincible warrior, restore us! Smile on us! Then we will be delivered!
8You have brought a vine out of Egypt; You have cast out the nations, and planted it.8You uprooted a vine from Egypt; you drove out nations and transplanted it.
9You prepared room for it, And caused it to take deep root, And it filled the land.9You cleared the ground for it; it took root, and filled the land.
10The hills were covered with its shadow, And the mighty cedars with its boughs.10The mountains were covered by its shadow, the highest cedars by its branches.
11She sent out her boughs to the Sea, And her branches to the River.11Its branches reached the Mediterranean Sea, and its shoots the Euphrates River.
12Why have You broken down her hedges, So that all who pass by the way pluck her fruit?12Why did you break down its walls, so that all who pass by pluck its fruit?
13The boar out of the woods uproots it, And the wild beast of the field devours it.13The wild boars of the forest ruin it; the insects of the field feed on it.
14Return, we beseech You, O God of hosts; Look down from heaven and see, And visit this vine14O God, invincible warrior, come back! Look down from heaven and take notice! Take care of this vine,
15And the vineyard which Your right hand has planted, And the branch that You made strong for Yourself.15the root your right hand planted, the shoot you made to grow!
16It is burned with fire, it is cut down; They perish at the rebuke of Your countenance.16It is burned and cut down. They die because you are displeased with them.
17Let Your hand be upon the man of Your right hand, Upon the son of man whom You made strong for Yourself.17May you give support to the one you have chosen, to the one whom you raised up for yourself!
18Then we will not turn back from You; Revive us, and we will call upon Your name.18Then we will not turn away from you. Revive us and we will pray to you!
19Restore us, O LORD God of hosts; Cause Your face to shine, And we shall be saved!19O LORD God, invincible warrior, restore us! Smile on us! Then we will be delivered!
