Salmos 80
<To the chief music-maker; put to Shoshannim-eduth. Of Asaph. A Psalm.> Give ear, O Keeper of Israel, guiding Joseph like a flock; you who have your seat on the winged ones, let your glory be seen.
Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh, let your strength be awake from sleep, and come as our salvation.
Take us back again, O God; let us see the shining of your face, and let us be safe.
O Lord God of armies, how long will your wrath be burning against the rest of your people?
You have given them the bread of weeping for food; for their drink you have given them sorrow in great measure.
You make us a cause of war among our neighbours; our haters are laughing at us among themselves.
Take us back again, O God of armies; let us see the shining of your face, and let us be safe.
You took a vine out of Egypt: driving out the nations, and planting it in their land.
You made ready a place for it, so that it might take deep root, and it sent out its branches over all the land.
The mountains were covered with its shade, and the great trees with its branches.
It sent out its arms to the Sea, and its branches to the River.
Why are its walls broken down by your hands, so that all who go by may take its fruit?
It is uprooted by the pigs from the woods, the beasts of the field get their food from it.
Come back, O God of armies: from heaven let your eyes be turned to this vine, and give your mind to it,
Even to the tree which was planted by your right hand, and to the branch which you made strong for yourself.
It is burned with fire; it is cut down: they are made waste by the wrath of your face.
Let your hand be on the man of your right hand, on the son of man whom you made strong for yourself.
So will we not be turned back from you; keep us in life, and we will give praise to your name.
Take us back, O Lord God of armies; let us see the shining of your face, and let us be safe.
[Para o músico-mor. Sobre Shoshanim Edute. Salmo de Asafe] Tu, que és pastor de Israel, dá ouvidos; tu, que guias a José como a um rebanho; tu, que te assentas entre os querubins, resplandece.
Perante Efraim, Benjamim e Manassés, desperta o teu poder, e vem salvar-nos.
Faze-nos voltar, ó Deus, e faze resplandecer o teu rosto, e seremos salvos.
O SENHOR Deus dos Exércitos, até quando te indignarás contra a oração do teu povo?
Tu os sustentas com pão de lágrimas, e lhes dás a beber lágrimas com abundância.
Tu nos pões em contendas com os nossos vizinhos, e os nossos inimigos zombam de nós entre si.
Faze-nos voltar, ó Deus dos Exércitos, e faze resplandecer o teu rosto, e seremos salvos.
Trouxeste uma vinha do Egito; lançaste fora os gentios, e a plantaste.
Preparaste-lhe lugar, e fizeste com que ela deitasse raízes, e encheu a terra.
Os montes foram cobertos da sua sombra, e os seus ramos se fizeram como os formosos cedros.
Ela estendeu a sua ramagem até ao mar, e os seus ramos até ao rio.
Por que quebraste então os seus valados, de modo que todos os que passam por ela a vindimam?
O javali da selva a devasta, e as feras do campo a devoram.
Oh! Deus dos Exércitos, volta-te, nós te rogamos, atende dos céus, e vê, e visita esta vide;
E a videira que a tua destra plantou, e o sarmento que fortificaste para ti.
Está queimada pelo fogo, está cortada; pereceu pela repreensão da tua face.
Seja a tua mão sobre o homem da tua destra, sobre o filho do homem, que fortificaste para ti.
Assim nós não te viraremos as costas; guarda-nos em vida, e invocaremos o teu nome.
Faze-nos voltar, SENHOR Deus dos Exércitos; faze resplandecer o teu rosto, e seremos salvos.
