1Unto the end, for the winepresses, a psalm for Asaph himself.
1 Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, Thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; Thou that sittest above the cherubim, shine forth.
2Rejoice to God our helper: sing aloud to the God of Jacob.
2Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh, stir up thy might, And come to save us.
3Take a psalm, and bring hither the timbrel: the pleasant psaltery with the harp.
3Turn us again, O God; And cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
4Blow up the trumpet on the new moon, on the noted day of your solemnity.
4 O Jehovah God of hosts, How long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy people?
5For it is a commandment in Israel, and a judgment to the God of Jacob.
5Thou hast fed them with the bread of tears, And given them tears to drink in large measure.
6He ordained it for a testimony in Joseph, when he came out of the land of Egypt: he heard a tongue which he knew not.
6Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbors; And our enemies laugh among themselves.
7He removed his back from the burdens: his hands had served in baskets.
7Turn us again, O God of hosts; And cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
8Thou calledst upon me in affliction, and I delivered thee: I heard thee in the secret place of tempest: I proved thee at the waters of contradiction.
8 Thou broughtest a vine out of Egypt: Thou didst drive out the nations, and plantedst it.
9Hear, O my people, and I will testify to thee: O Israel, if thou wilt hearken to me,
9Thou preparedst room before it, And it took deep root, and filled the land.
10there shall be no new god in thee: neither shalt thou adore a strange god.
10The mountains were covered with the shadow of it, And the boughs thereof were like cedars of God.
11For I am the Lord thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.
11It sent out its branches unto the sea, And its shoots unto the River.
12But my people heard not my voice: and Israel hearkened not to me.
12Why hast thou broken down its walls, So that all they that pass by the way do pluck it?
13So I let them go according to the desires of their heart: they shall walk in their own inventions.
13The boar out of the wood doth ravage it, And the wild beasts of the field feed on it.
14If my people had heard me: if Israel had walked in my ways:
14Turn again, we beseech thee, O God of hosts: Look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this vine,
15I should soon have humbled their enemies, and laid my hand on them that troubled them.
15And the stock which thy right hand planted, And the branch that thou madest strong for thyself.
16The enemies of the Lord have lied to him: and their time shall be for ever.
16It is burned with fire, it is cut down: They perish at the rebuke of thy countenance.
17And he fed them with the fat of wheat, and filled them with honey out of the rock.
17Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, Upon the son of man whom thou madest strong for thyself.
