1 Hear us, Shepherd of Israel,you who lead Joseph like a flock,you who sit above the cherubim, shine out.
2 Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh, stir up your might!Come to save us!
3 Turn us again, God.Cause your face to shine,and we will be saved.
4 Lord God of Hosts,How long will you be angry against the prayer of your people?
5 You have fed them with the bread of tears,and given them tears to drink in large measure.
6 You make us a source of contention to our neighbors.Our enemies laugh among themselves.
7 Turn us again, God of Hosts.Cause your face to shine,and we will be saved.
