English translation (JPS 1917)
- For the Leader; upon Shoshannim. A testimony. A Psalm of Asaph.
- Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, Thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; Thou that art enthroned upon the cherubim, shine forth.
- Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh, stir up Thy might, And come to save us.
- O God, restore us; And cause Thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
- O LORD God of hosts, How long wilt Thou be angry against the prayer of Thy people?
- Thou hast fed them with the bread of tears, And given them tears to drink in large measure.
- Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbours; And our enemies mock as they please.
- O God of hosts, restore us; And cause Thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
- Thou didst pluck up a vine out of Egypt; Thou didst drive out the nations, and didst plant it.
- Thou didst clear a place before it, And it took deep root, and filled the land.
- The mountains were covered with the shadow of it, And the mighty cedars with the boughs thereof.
- She sent out her branches unto the sea, And her shoots unto the River.
- Why hast Thou broken down her fences, So that all they that pass by the way do pluck her?
- The boar out of the wood doth ravage it, That which moveth in the field feedeth on it.
- O God of hosts, return, we beseech Thee; Look from heaven, and behold, and be mindful of this vine,
- And of the stock which Thy right hand hath planted, And the branch that Thou madest strong for Thyself. .
- It is burned with fire, it is cut down; They perish at the rebuke of Thy countenance.
- Let Thy hand be upon the man of Thy right hand, Upon the son of man whom Thou madest strong for Thyself.
- So shall we not turn back from Thee; Quicken Thou us, and we will call upon Thy name.
- O LORD God of hosts, restore us; Cause Thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
