Psalm 80:7–19 | Liturgical Calendar

7

Restore us again, O God of hosts; *

show the light of your countenance, and we shall be whole.

8

You have brought a vine out of Egypt; *

you have cast out the nations and planted it.

9

You made room for it, *

and when it had taken root it filled the land.

10

The hills were covered with the shadow of it, *

and the boughs thereof were like the mighty cedar trees.

11

It stretched out its branches to the sea *

and its boughs to the river.

12

Why have you broken down her hedge, *

so that all those who go by pluck off her grapes?

13

The wild boar out of the wood roots it up, *

and the wild beasts of the field devour it.

14

Turn again, O God of hosts, look down from heaven; *

behold, and visit this vine,

15

And the place of the vineyard that your right hand has planted, *

and the branch that you made so strong for yourself.

16

As for those who burn it with fire and cut it down, *

let them perish at the rebuke of your countenance.

17

Let your hand be upon the man of your right hand *

and upon the son of man, whom you made so strong for yourself.

18

And so we will not turn back from you; *

O let us live, and we shall call upon your Name.

19

Restore us again, O Lord God of hosts; *

show the light of your countenance, and we shall be whole.
