1 Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel,You who lead Joseph like a flock;You who dwell between the cherubim, shine forth!
2 Before Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh,Stir up Your strength,And come and save us!
3 Restore us, O God;Cause Your face to shine,And we shall be saved!
4 O Lord God of hosts,How long will You be angryAgainst the prayer of Your people?
5 You have fed them with the bread of tears,And given them tears to drink in great measure.
6 You have made us a strife to our neighbors,And our enemies laugh among themselves.
