Psalms 80:14-19

Restore Us, Shepherd of Israel, and Revive the Vine You Planted

The psalm moves from an opening cry to the Shepherd of Israel, through the repeated restoration refrain, into lament over divine anger and tears, then into the extended vine-from-Egypt memory, a plea for God to return to the ravaged vine, and finally a prayer for the man at God's right hand through whom revival and renewed covenant calling will come.

14Return, O God of Hosts, we pray! Look down from heaven and see! Attend to this vine—

15the root Your right hand has planted, the son You have raised up for Yourself.

16Your vine has been cut down and burned; they perish at the rebuke of Your countenance.

17Let Your hand be upon the man at Your right hand, on the son of man You have raised up for Yourself.

18Then we will not turn away from You; revive us, and we will call on Your name.

19Restore us, O LORD God of Hosts; cause Your face to shine upon us, that we may be saved.
