you who lead Joseph like a flock.
You who sit enthroned between the cherubim,
shine forth
For the director of music. To the tune of “The Lilies of the Covenant.” Of Asaph. A psalm.
1 Hear us, Shepherd of Israel,
you who lead Joseph like a flock.
You who sit enthroned between the cherubim,
shine forth
5 You have fed them with the bread of tears;
you have made them drink tears by the bowlful.
you have made them drink tears by the bowlful.
8 You transplanted a vine from Egypt;
you drove out the nations and planted it.
you drove out the nations and planted it.
9 You cleared the ground for it,
and it took root and filled the land.
and it took root and filled the land.
10 The mountains were covered with its shade,
the mighty cedars with its branches.
the mighty cedars with its branches.
12 Why have you broken down its walls
so that all who pass by pick its grapes?
so that all who pass by pick its grapes?
13 Boars from the forest ravage it,
and insects from the fields feed on it.
and insects from the fields feed on it.
16 Your vine is cut down, it is burned with fire;
at your rebuke your people perish.
at your rebuke your people perish.
17 Let your hand rest on the man at your right hand,
the son of man you have raised up for yourself.
the son of man you have raised up for yourself.
18 Then we will not turn away from you;
revive us, and we will call on your name.
revive us, and we will call on your name.
