Psalms 80:10-14 in English

¹⁰ The mountains were covered with the shadow of it, And the boughs thereof were like cedars of God.

¹¹ It sent out its branches unto the sea, And its shoots unto the River.

¹² Why hast thou broken down its walls, So that all they that pass by the way do pluck it?

¹³ The boar out of the wood doth ravage it, And the wild beasts of the field feed on it.

¹⁴ Turn again, we beseech thee, O God of hosts: Look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this vine,

¹⁰ there shall be no new god in thee; neither shalt thou worship a strange god.

¹¹ For I am the Lord thy God, that brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.

¹² But my people hearkened not to my voice; and Israel gave no heed to me.

¹³ So I let them go after the ways of their own hearts: they will go on in their own ways.

¹⁴ If my people had hearkened to me, if Israel had walked in my ways,

¹⁰ The hills were covered with the shadow of it, and the boughs thereof were like the goodly cedars.

¹¹ She sent out her boughs unto the sea, and her branches unto the river.

¹² Why hast thou then broken down her hedges, so that all they which pass by the way do pluck her?

¹³ The boar out of the wood doth waste it, and the wild beast of the field doth devour it.

¹⁴ Return, we beseech thee, O God of hosts: look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this vine;

¹¹ But my people listened not to my voice; and Israel gave no heed to me.

¹² So I let them go after the ways of their own hearts: they will go on in their own ways.

¹⁰ Like huge grapevines cover the hills with their shade and their branches are taller than big cedar trees MET, HYP,

¹¹ your people ruled all of Canaan, from the Mediterranean Sea in the west to the Euphrates River in the east.

¹² So why have you abandoned us and allowed our enemies to tear down our walls RHQ? You are like someone who tears down the fences around his vineyard, with the result that all the people who pass by can steal the grapes,

¹³ and wild pigs can trample the vines, and wild animals can also eat the grapes.

¹⁴ You who are the commander of the armies of heaven, ◄turn to/stop abandoning► us! Look down from heaven and see what is happening to us! Come and rescue us who are like MET your grapevine,

¹² But my people heard not my voice: and Israel hearkened not to me.

¹⁴ If my people had heard me: if Israel had walked in my ways:
