³ Restore us, O God;
    let your face shine, that we may be saved.^(C)

⁴ O Lord God of hosts,
    how long will you be angry with your people’s prayers?^(D)
5 You have fed them with the bread of tears
    and given them tears to drink in full measure.^(E)
6 You make us the scorn^[a] of our neighbors;
    our enemies laugh among themselves.^(F)

⁷ Restore us, O God of hosts;
    let your face shine, that we may be saved.

⁸ You brought a vine out of Egypt;
    you drove out the nations and planted it.^(G)
9 You cleared the ground for it;
    it took deep root and filled the land.^(H)
10 The mountains were covered with its shade,
    the mighty cedars with its branches;
¹¹ it sent out its branches to the sea
    and its shoots to the River.
¹² Why then have you broken down its walls,
    so that all who pass along the way pluck its fruit?^(I)
13 The boar from the forest ravages it,
    and all that move in the field feed on it.^(J)

¹⁴ Turn again, O God of hosts;
    look down from heaven and see;
have regard for this vine,^(K)
15     the stock that your right hand planted.^[b]
16 It has been burned with fire; it has been cut down;
    may they perish at the rebuke of your countenance.^(L)
17 But let your hand be upon the one at your right hand,
    the one whom you made strong for yourself.^(M)
18 Then we will never turn back from you;
    give us life, and we will call on your name.^(N)

¹⁹ Restore us, O Lord God of hosts;
    let your face shine, that we may be saved.
