Psalms

¹Unto the end. For those who will be changed. The testimony of Asaph. A Psalm. ↗

²The One who reigns over Israel: Be attentive. For you lead Joseph like a sheep. The One who sits upon the cherubim: Shine forth ↗

³in the presence of Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh. Awaken your power and draw near, so as to accomplish our salvation. ↗

⁴Convert us, O God. And reveal your face, and we will be saved. ↗

⁵O Lord, God of hosts, how long will you be angry over the prayer of your servant? ↗

⁶How long will you feed us the bread of tears, and give us to drink a full measure of tears? ↗

⁷You have set us as a contradiction to our neighbors. And our enemies have ridiculed us. ↗

⁸O God of hosts, convert us. And reveal your face, and we will be saved. ↗

⁹You have transferred a vineyard from Egypt. You have cast out the Gentiles, and planted it. ↗

¹⁰You were the leader of the journey in its sight. You planted its roots, and it filled the earth. ↗

¹¹Its shadow covered the hills, and its branches covered the cedars of God. ↗

¹²It extended its new branches even to the sea, and its new seedlings even to the river. ↗

¹³So then, why have you destroyed its walls, so that all those who pass by the way gather its grapes? ↗

¹⁴The wild boar of the forest has trampled it, and a single wild beast has laid waste to it. ↗

¹⁵Turn back, O God of hosts. Look down from heaven, and see, and visit this vineyard; ↗

¹⁶and complete what your right hand has planted, and look upon the son of man, whom you have confirmed for yourself. ↗

¹⁷Whatever has been set on fire and dug under will perish at the rebuke of your countenance. ↗

¹⁸Let your hand be over the man on your right, and over the son of man, whom you have confirmed for yourself. ↗

¹⁹For we do not depart from you, and you will revive us. And we will invoke your name. ↗

²⁰O Lord, God of hosts, convert us. And reveal your face, and we will be saved. ↗
