Prayer for Israel’s Restoration
To the Chief Musician. Set to [a]“The Lilies.” A [b]Testimony of Asaph. A Psalm.
1 Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel,
You who lead Joseph like a flock;
You who dwell between the cherubim, shine forth!
To the Chief Musician. Set to [a]“The Lilies.” A [b]Testimony of Asaph. A Psalm.
1 Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel,
You who lead Joseph like a flock;
You who dwell between the cherubim, shine forth!
5 You have fed them with the bread of tears,
And given them tears to drink in great measure.
And given them tears to drink in great measure.
6 You have made us a strife to our neighbors,
And our enemies laugh among themselves.
And our enemies laugh among themselves.
13 The boar out of the woods uproots it,
And the wild beast of the field devours it.
And the wild beast of the field devours it.
15 And the vineyard which Your right hand has planted,
And the branch that You made strong for Yourself.
And the branch that You made strong for Yourself.
16 It is burned with fire, it is cut down;
They perish at the rebuke of Your countenance.
They perish at the rebuke of Your countenance.
17 Let Your hand be upon the man of Your right hand,
Upon the son of man whom You made strong for Yourself.
Upon the son of man whom You made strong for Yourself.
18 Then we will not turn back from You;
Revive us, and we will call upon Your name.
Revive us, and we will call upon Your name.
