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.
1For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “The Lilies of the Covenant.” A Psalm by Asaph. Hear us, Shepherd of Israel, you who lead Joseph like a flock, you who sit above the cherubim, shine out.
2Take a psalm, and produce the timbrel, the pleasant lute with the harp.
2Before Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh, stir up your might! Come to save us!
3Blow the trumpet at the new moon, in the glorious day of your feast.
3Turn us again, God. Cause your face to shine, and we will be saved.
4For [this] is an ordinance for Israel, and a statute of the God of Jacob.
4Yahweh God of Armies, how long will you be angry against the prayer of your 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.
5You have fed them with the bread of tears, and given them tears to drink in large measure.
6He removed his back from burdens: his hands slaved in making the baskets.
6You make us a source of contention to our neighbors. 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, God of Armies. Cause your face to shine, and we will 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;
8You brought a vine out of Egypt. You drove out the nations, and planted it.
9there shall be no new god in you; neither shall you worship a strange god.
9You cleared the ground for it. It took deep root, and 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 mountains were covered with its shadow. Its boughs were like God’s cedars.
11But my people listened not to my voice; and Israel gave no heed to me.
11It sent out its branches to the sea, its shoots to the River.
12So I let them go after the ways of their own hearts: they will go on in their own ways.
12Why have you broken down its walls, so that all those who pass by the way pluck it?
13If my people had listened to me, if Israel had walked in my ways,
13The boar out of the wood ravages it. The wild animals of the field feed on it.
14I should have put down their enemies very quickly, and should have laid my hand upon those that afflicted them.
14Turn again, we beg you, God of Armies. Look down from heaven, and see, and visit this vine,
15The Lord's enemies [should have] lied to him: but their time shall be for ever.
15the stock which your right hand planted, the branch that you made strong for yourself.
16And he fed them with the fat of wheat; and satisfied them with honey out of the rock.
16It’s burned with fire. It’s cut down. They perish at your rebuke.
