Psalms 79:2-7

²Give ear, O thou that rulest Israel: thou that leadest Joseph like a sheep. Thou that sittest upon the cherubims, shine forth

³Before Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasses. Stir up thy might, and come to save us.

⁴Convert us, O God: and shew us thy face, and we shall be saved.

⁵O Lord God of hosts, how long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy servant?

⁶How long wilt thou feed us with the bread of tears: and give us for our drink tears in measure?

⁷Thou hast made us to be a contradiction to our neighbours: and our enemies have scoffed at us.
