Psalm 80:9 Context

◄ Psalm 80:9 ►

You cleared the ground for it, and it took root and filled the land.

Context

9You cleared the ground before it,
And it took deep root and filled the land.

10The mountains were covered with its shadow,
And the cedars of God with its boughs.

11It was sending out its branches to the sea
And its shoots to the River.

12Why have You broken down its hedges,
So that all who pass that way pick its fruit?

13A boar from the forest eats it away
And whatever moves in the field feeds on it.

14O God of hosts, turn again now, we beseech You;
Look down from heaven and see, and take care of this vine,

15Even the shoot which Your right hand has planted,
And on the son whom You have strengthened for Yourself.

16It is burned with fire, it is cut down;
They perish at the rebuke of Your countenance.

17Let Your hand be upon the man of Your right hand,
Upon the son of man whom You made strong for Yourself.

18Then we shall not turn back from You;
Revive us, and we will call upon Your name.

19O LORD God of hosts, restore us;
Cause Your face to shine upon us, and we will be saved.
