2 Shepherd of Israel, show your greatness to the tribes of Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh. Come and save your people.
3 God, accept us again. Smile down on us and save us!
4 Lord God All-Powerful, when will you listen to our prayers? How long will you be angry with us?
5 Instead of bread and water, you gave your people tears.
6 You made us the target of everyone’s hatred. Our enemies make fun of us.
7 God All-Powerful, accept us again. Smile down on us and save us!
8 When you brought us out of Egypt, we were like your special vine. You forced other nations to leave this land, and you planted that vine here.
