NASB

Psalm 80

God Implored to Rescue His People from Their Calamities.

^{Tools
1} For the choir director; set to ^(a)El Shoshannim; ^(b)Eduth. A Psalm of Asaph.

Oh, give ear, ^(A)Shepherd of Israel,
You who lead ^(B)Joseph like a flock;
You who ^(C)are enthroned above the cherubim, shine forth!

^{Tools
2}

Before ^(D)Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh, ^(E)stir up Your power
And come to save us!

^{Tools
3}

O God, ^(F)restore us
And ^(G)cause Your face to shine upon us, ^(c)and we will be saved.

^{Tools
4}

O ^(H)Lord God of hosts,
^(I)How long will You ^(d)be angry with the prayer of Your people?

^{Tools
5}

You have fed them with the ^(J)bread of tears,
And You have made them to drink tears in ^(e)large measure.

^{Tools
6}

You make us ^(f)an object of contention ^(K)to our neighbors,
And our enemies laugh among themselves.

^{Tools
7}

O God of hosts, restore us
And cause Your face to shine upon us, ^(g)and we will be saved.

^{Tools
8}

You removed a ^(L)vine from Egypt;
You ^(M)drove out the ^(h)nations and ^(N)planted it.

^{Tools
9}

You ^(O)cleared the ground before it,
And it ^(P)took deep root and filled the land.

^{Tools
10}

The mountains were covered with its shadow,
And ⁽ⁱ⁾the cedars of God with its ^(Q)boughs.

^{Tools
11}

It was sending out its branches ^(R)to the sea
And its shoots to the River.

^{Tools
12}

Why have You ^(S)broken down its ^(j)hedges,
So that all who pass that way pick its fruit?

^{Tools
13}

A boar from the forest ^(T)eats it away
And whatever moves in the field feeds on it.

^{Tools
14}

O God of hosts, ^(U)turn again now, we beseech You;
^(V)Look down from heaven and see, and take care of this vine,

^{Tools
15}

Even the ^(k)^(W)shoot which Your right hand has planted,
And on the ^(l)son whom You have ^(m)strengthened for Yourself.

^{Tools
16}

It is ^(X)burned with fire, it is cut down;
They perish at the ^(Y)rebuke of Your countenance.

^{Tools
17}

Let ^(Z)Your hand be upon the man of Your right hand,
Upon the son of man whom You ^(AA)made strong for Yourself.

^{Tools
18}

Then we shall not ^(AB)turn back from You;
^(AC)Revive us, and we will call upon Your name.

^{Tools
19}

O Lord God of hosts, ^(AD)restore us;
Cause Your face to shine upon us, ⁽ⁿ⁾and we will be saved.
