We thank you, for your name is near

1
For the chief musician, set to the Shoshannim Eduth style. A psalm of Asaph. Pay attention, Shepherd of Israel, you who lead Joseph like a flock; you who sit above the cherubim, shine on us!
2
In the sight of Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh, stir up your power; come and save us.
3
God, restore us; make your face shine on us, and we will be saved.
4
Yahweh God of hosts, how long will you be angry at your people when they pray?
5
You have fed them with the bread of tears and given them tears to drink in great quantities.
6
You make us something for our neighbors to argue over, and our enemies laugh about us among themselves.
7
God of hosts, restore us; make your face shine on us, and we will be saved.
8
You brought a vine out of Egypt; you drove out nations and transplanted it.
9
You cleared the land for it; it took root and filled the land.
10
The mountains were covered with its shade, the cedars of God by its branches.
11
It sent out its branches as far as the sea and its shoots to the Euphrates River.
12
Why have you broken down its walls so that all they who pass by pluck its fruit.
13
The boars out of the forest ruin it, and the beasts of the field feed on it.
14
Turn back, God of hosts; look down from heaven and take notice and take care of this vine.
15
This is the root that your right hand planted, the shoot that you made to grow.
16
It has been burned and cut down; they perish because of your rebuke.
17
May your hand be on the man of your right hand, on the son of man whom you made strong for yourself.
18
Then we will not turn away from you; revive us, and we will call on your name.
19
Yahweh, God of hosts, restore us; make your face shine on us, and we will be saved.

We thank you, for your name is near

1
Hear us, Shepherd of Israel, you who lead Joseph like a flock, you who sit above the cherubim, shine out.
2
Before Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh, stir up your might! Come to save us!
3
Turn us again, God. Cause your face to shine, and we will be saved.
4
LORD God of Armies, how long will you be angry against the prayer of your people?
5
You have fed them with the bread of tears, and given them tears to drink in large measure.
6
You make us a source of contention to our neighbors. Our enemies laugh among themselves.
7
Turn us again, God of Armies. Cause your face to shine, and we will be saved.
8
You brought a vine out of Egypt. You drove out the nations, and planted it.
9
You cleared the ground for it. It took deep root, and filled the land.
10
The mountains were covered with its shadow. Its boughs were like God’s cedars.
11
It sent out its branches to the sea, its shoots to the River.
12
Why have you broken down its walls, so that all those who pass by the way pluck it?
13
The boar out of the wood ravages it. The wild animals of the field feed on it.
14
Turn again, we beg you, God of Armies. Look down from heaven, and see, and visit this vine,
15
the stock which your right hand planted, the branch that you made strong for yourself.
16
It’s burned with fire. It’s cut down. They perish at your rebuke.
17
Let your hand be on the man of your right hand, on the son of man whom you made strong for yourself.
18
So we will not turn away from you. Revive us, and we will call on your name.
19
Turn us again, LORD God of Armies. Cause your face to shine, and we will be saved.
