Hear, O thou Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph | like a flock;
* show thyself also, thou that | sittest• upon the Cherubim.
2 Before Ephraim, Benjamin, | and Manasseh,
* stir up thy | strength, and come and help us.
3 Turn us a- | -gain, O God;
* show the light of thy countenance, | and we shall be whole.
4 O LORD | God of hosts,
* how long wilt thou be angry | with thy •people• that prayeth?
5 Thou feedest them with the | bread of tears,
* and givest them plenteous- | -ness of tears to drink.
6 Thou hast made us a very strife | unto• our neighbours,
* and our enemies | laugh us to scorn.
7 Turn us again, thou | God of hosts;
* show the light of thy countenance, | and we shall be whole.
8 Thou hast brought a vine | out of Egypt;
* thou hast cast out the | heathen,• and planted it.
9 Thou madest | room for it;
* and when it had taken | root, it filled the land.
10 The hills were covered with the | shadow of it,
* and the boughs thereof were like the | goodly cedar-trees.
11 She stretched out her branches | unto• the sea,
* and her | boughs •unto• the River.
12 Why hast thou then broken | down her hedge,
* that all they that go by | pluck off her grapes?
13 The wild boar out of the wood doth | root it up,
* and the wild beasts | of the field devour it.
14 Turn thee again, thou God of hosts, look | down from heaven,
* behold, and | visit this vine;
15 And the place of the vineyard that thy right | hand hath planted,
* and the branch that thou madest so | strong for thyself.
16 It is burnt with fire, and | cut down;
* and they shall perish at the re- | -buke of thy countenance.
17 Let thy hand be upon the man of thy | right hand,
* and upon the son of man, whom thou madest so strong | for thine own self.
18 And so will not we go | back from thee:
* O let us live, and we shall | call upon thy Name.
19 Turn us again, O LORD | God of hosts;
* show the light of thy countenance, | and we shall be whole.
Glory be to the Father, and | to the Son,
* and | to the Holy Ghost,
As it was in the beginning, is now, and | ever shall be,
* world without | end. Amen.
