1(81) For the end, a Psalm for Asaph, concerning the wine presses. Rejoice you⌃ in God our helper; shout aloud to the God of Jacob.
1Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; thou that dwellest between the cherubims, shine forth.
2Take a psalm, and produce the timbrel, the pleasant lute with the harp.
2Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh stir up thy strength, and come and save us.
3Blow the trumpet at the new moon, in the glorious day of your feast.
3Turn us again, O God, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.
4For [this] is an ordinance for Israel, and a statute of the God of Jacob.
4O Lord God of hosts, how long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy people?
5He made it [to be] a testimony in Joseph, when he came forth out of the land of Egypt: he heard a language which he understood not.
5Thou feedest them with the bread of tears; and givest them tears to drink in great measure.
6He removed his back from burdens: his hands slaved in making the baskets.
6Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbours: and our enemies laugh among themselves.
7You did call upon me in trouble, and I delivered you; I heard you in the secret place of the storm: I proved you at the water of Strife. Pause.
7Turn us again, O God of hosts, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.
8Hear, my people, and I will speak to you, O Israel; and I will testify to you: if you will listen to me;
8Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt: thou hast cast out the heathen, and planted it.
9there shall be no new god in you; neither shall you worship a strange god.
9Thou preparedst room before it, and didst cause it to take deep root, and it filled the land.
10For I am the Lord your God, that brought you out of the land of Egypt: open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.
10The hills were covered with the shadow of it, and the boughs thereof were like the goodly cedars.
11But my people listened not to my voice; and Israel gave no heed to me.
11She sent out her boughs unto the sea, and her branches unto the river.
12So I let them go after the ways of their own hearts: they will go on in their own ways.
12Why hast thou then broken down her hedges, so that all they which pass by the way do pluck her?
13If my people had listened to me, if Israel had walked in my ways,
13The boar out of the wood doth waste it, and the wild beast of the field doth devour it.
14I should have put down their enemies very quickly, and should have laid my hand upon those that afflicted them.
14Return, we beseech thee, O God of hosts: look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this vine;
15The Lord's enemies [should have] lied to him: but their time shall be for ever.
15And the vineyard which thy right hand hath planted, and the branch that thou madest strong for thyself.
16And he fed them with the fat of wheat; and satisfied them with honey out of the rock.
16It is burned with fire, it is cut down: they perish at the rebuke of thy countenance.
