Ps 80

TTo the chief Musician upon Shoshannim-eduth, A Psalm of Asaph. Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; thou that dwellest between the cherubims, shine forth. (MT 80:2; LXX 79:1; LXX 79:2; Rahlfs 79:1; Rahlfs 79:2) לַמְנַצֵּ֥חַ אֶל־שֹׁשַׁנִּ֑ים עֵד֖וּת לְאָסָ֣ף מִזְמֽוֹר׃ 2Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh stir up thy strength, and come and save us. (MT 80:3; LXX 79:3; Rahlfs 79:3) רֹ֘עֵ֤ה יִשְׂרָאֵ֨ל ׀ הַאֲזִ֗ינָה נֹהֵ֣ג כַּצֹּ֣אן יוֹסֵ֑ף יֹשֵׁ֖ב הַכְּרוּבִ֣ים הוֹפִֽיעָה׃ 3Turn us again, O God, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved. (MT 80:4; LXX 79:4; Rahlfs 79:4) לִפְנֵ֤י אֶפְרַ֨יִם ׀ וּבִנְיָ֘מִ֤ן וּמְנַשֶּׁ֗ה עוֹרְרָ֥ה אֶת־גְּבֽוּרָתֶ֑ךָ וּלְכָ֖ה לִישֻׁעָ֣תָה לָּֽנוּ׃ 4O Lord God of hosts, how long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy people? (MT 80:5; LXX 79:5; Rahlfs 79:5) אֱלֹהִ֥ים הֲשִׁיבֵ֑נוּ וְהָאֵ֥ר פָּ֝נֶ֗יךָ וְנִוָּשֵֽׁעָה׃ 5Thou feedest them with the bread of tears; and givest them tears to drink in great measure. (MT 80:6; LXX 79:6; Rahlfs 79:6) יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהִ֣ים צְבָא֑וֹת עַד־מָתַ֥י עָ֝שַׁ֗נְתָּ בִּתְפִלַּ֥ת עַמֶּֽךָ׃ 6Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbours: and our enemies laugh among themselves. (MT 80:7; LXX 79:7; Rahlfs 79:7) הֶ֭אֱכַלְתָּם לֶ֣חֶם דִּמְעָ֑ה וַ֝תַּשְׁקֵ֗מוֹ בִּדְמָע֥וֹת שָׁלִֽישׁ׃ 7Turn us again, O God of hosts, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved. (MT 80:8; LXX 79:8; Rahlfs 79:8) תְּשִׂימֵ֣נוּ מָ֭דוֹן לִשְׁכֵנֵ֑ינוּ וְ֝אֹיְבֵ֗ינוּ יִלְעֲגוּ־לָֽמוֹ׃ 8Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt: thou hast cast out the heathen, and planted it. (MT 80:9; LXX 79:9; Rahlfs 79:9) אֱלֹהִ֣ים צְבָא֣וֹת הֲשִׁיבֵ֑נוּ וְהָאֵ֥ר פָּ֝נֶ֗יךָ וְנִוָּשֵֽׁעָה׃ 9Thou preparedst room before it, and didst cause it to take deep root, and it filled the land. (MT 80:10; LXX 79:10; Rahlfs 79:10) גֶּ֭פֶן מִמִּצְרַ֣יִם תַּסִּ֑יעַ תְּגָרֵ֥שׁ גּ֝וֹיִ֗ם וַתִּטָּעֶֽהָ׃ 10The hills were covered with the shadow of it, and the boughs thereof were like the goodly cedars. (MT 80:11; LXX 79:11; Rahlfs 79:11) פִּנִּ֥יתָ לְפָנֶ֑יהָ וַתַּשְׁרֵ֥שׁ שָׁ֝רָשֶׁ֗יהָ וַתְּמַלֵּא־אָֽרֶץ׃ 11She sent out her boughs unto the sea, and her branches unto the river. (MT 80:12; LXX 79:12; Rahlfs 79:12) כָּסּ֣וּ הָרִ֣ים צִלָּ֑הּ וַ֝עֲנָפֶ֗יהָ אַֽרְזֵי־אֵֽל׃ 12Why hast thou then broken down her hedges, so that all they which pass by the way do pluck her? (MT 80:13; LXX 79:13; Rahlfs 79:13) תְּשַׁלַּ֣ח קְצִירֶ֣הָ עַד־יָ֑ם וְאֶל־נָ֝הָ֗ר יֽוֹנְקוֹתֶֽיהָ׃ 13The boar out of the wood doth waste it, and the wild beast of the field doth devour it. (MT 80:14; LXX 79:14; Rahlfs 79:14) לָ֭מָּה פָּרַ֣צְתָּ גְדֵרֶ֑יהָ וְ֝אָר֗וּהָ כָּל־עֹ֥בְרֵי דָֽרֶךְ׃ 14Return, we beseech thee, O God of hosts: look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this vine; (MT 80:15; LXX 79:15; Rahlfs 79:15) יְכַרְסְמֶ֣נָּֽה חֲזִ֣יר מִיָּ֑עַר וְזִ֖יז שָׂדַ֣י יִרְעֶֽנָּה׃ 15And the vineyard which thy right hand hath planted, and the branch that thou madest strong for thyself. (MT 80:16; LXX 79:16; Rahlfs 79:16) אֱלֹהִ֣ים צְבָאוֹת֮ שֽׁ֫וּב־נָ֥א הַבֵּ֣ט מִשָּׁמַ֣יִם וּרְאֵ֑ה וּ֝פְקֹ֗ד גֶּ֣פֶן זֹֽאת׃ 16It is burned with fire, it is cut down: they perish at the rebuke of thy countenance. (MT 80:17; LXX 79:17; Rahlfs 79:17) וְ֭כַנָּה אֲשֶׁר־נָטְעָ֣ה יְמִינֶ֑ךָ וְעַל־בֵּ֝֗ן אִמַּ֥צְתָּה לָּֽךְ׃ 17Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, upon the son of man whom thou madest strong for thyself. (MT 80:18; LXX 79:18; Rahlfs 79:18) שְׂרֻפָ֣ה בָאֵ֣שׁ כְּסוּחָ֑ה מִגַּעֲרַ֖ת פָּנֶ֣יךָ יֹאבֵֽדוּ׃ 18So will not we go back from thee: quicken us, and we will call upon thy name. (MT 80:19; LXX 79:19; Rahlfs 79:19) תְּֽהִי־יָ֭דְךָ עַל־אִ֣ישׁ יְמִינֶ֑ךָ עַל־בֶּן־אָ֝דָ֗ם אִמַּ֥צְתָּ לָּֽךְ׃ 19Turn us again, O Lord God of hosts, cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved. (MT 80:20; LXX 79:20; Rahlfs 79:20) וְלֹא־נָס֥וֹג מִמֶּ֑ךָּ תְּ֝חַיֵּ֗נוּ וּבְשִׁמְךָ֥ נִקְרָֽא׃
