1Unto the end, for the winepresses, a psalm for Asaph himself.
1Hear us, Shepherd of Israel, you who lead Joseph like a flock, you who sit above the cherubim, shine out.
2Rejoice to God our helper: sing aloud to the God of Jacob.
2Before Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh, stir up your might! Come to save us!
3Take a psalm, and bring hither the timbrel: the pleasant psaltery with the harp.
3Turn us again, God. Cause your face to shine, and we will be saved.
4Blow up the trumpet on the new moon, on the noted day of your solemnity.
4LORD God of Armies, how long will you be angry against the prayer of your people?
5For it is a commandment in Israel, and a judgment to the God of Jacob.
5You have 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.
6You make us a source of contention to our neighbors. Our enemies laugh among themselves.
7He removed his back from the burdens: his hands had served in baskets.
7Turn us again, God of Armies. Cause your face to shine, and we will 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.
8You brought a vine out of Egypt. You drove out the nations, and planted it.
9Hear, O my people, and I will testify to thee: O Israel, if thou wilt hearken to me,
9You cleared the ground for it. 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 its shadow. Its boughs were like God’s cedars.
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 to the sea, its shoots to the River.
12But my people heard not my voice: and Israel hearkened not to me.
12Why have you broken down its walls, so that all those who pass by the way 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 ravages it. The wild animals of the field feed on it.
14If my people had heard me: if Israel had walked in my ways:
14Turn again, we beg you, God of Armies. Look down from heaven, and see, and visit this vine,
15I should soon have humbled their enemies, and laid my hand on them that troubled them.
15the stock which your right hand planted, the branch that you made strong for yourself.
16The enemies of the Lord have lied to him: and their time shall be for ever.
16It’s burned with fire. It’s cut down. They perish at your rebuke.
17And he fed them with the fat of wheat, and filled them with honey out of the rock.
17Let your hand be on the man of your right hand, on the son of man whom you made strong for yourself.
