Psalms 80:1-9 ▼

1 To the chiefe musition, vpon Sosannim Eduth, a psalme of Asaph. Heare O thou shephearde of Israel, thou that leadest Ioseph lyke a sheepe: and thou that sittest vpon the Cherubims, shew thy gratious presence.

2 Before Ephraim, Beniamin, and Manasses: stirre vp thy strength, and come for to saue vs.

3 Turne vs agayne O Lorde: shewe the light of thy countenaunce, and we shalbe saued.

4 O God, Lorde of hoastes: howe long wylt thou be angry at the prayer of thy people?

5 Thou feedest them with the bread of teares: and geuest them plenteously teares to drinke.

6 Thou hast made vs a strife vnto our neighbours: and our enemies laugh vs to scorne.

7 Turne vs agayne thou Lorde of hoastes: shewe the light of thy countenaunce, and we shalbe saued.

8 Thou dydst translate a vine out of Egypt: thou didst cast out the Heathen, and planted it.

9 Thou madst roome before it: thou causedst it to take roote, and it hath filled the lande.
