¹ A psalm for Asaph. O God, the heathens are come into thy inheritance, they have defiled thy holy temple: they have made Jerusalem as a place to keep fruit.	¹ Unto the end. For those who will be changed. The testimony of Asaph. A Psalm.
² They have given the dead bodies of thy servants to be meat for the fowls of the air: the flesh of thy saints for the beasts of the earth.	² The One who reigns over Israel: Be attentive. For you lead Joseph like a sheep. The One who sits upon the cherubim: Shine forth
³ They have poured out their blood as water, round about Jerusalem and there was none to bury them.	³ in the presence of Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh. Awaken your power and draw near, so as to accomplish our salvation.
⁴ We are become a reproach to our neighbours: a scorn and derision to them that are round about us.	⁴ Convert us, O God. And reveal your face, and we will be saved.
⁵ How long, O Lord, wilt thou be angry for ever: shall thy zeal be kindled like a fire?	⁵ O Lord, God of hosts, how long will you be angry over the prayer of your servant?
⁶ Pour out thy wrath upon the nations that have not known thee: and upon the kingdoms that have not called upon thy name.	⁶ How long will you feed us the bread of tears, and give us to drink a full measure of tears?
⁷ Because they have devoured Jacob; and have laid waste his place.	⁷ You have set us as a contradiction to our neighbors. And our enemies have ridiculed us.
⁸ Remember not our former iniquities: let thy mercies speedily prevent us, for we are become exceeding poor.	⁸ O God of hosts, convert us. And reveal your face, and we will be saved.
⁹ Help us, O God, our saviour: and for the glory of thy name, O Lord, deliver us: and forgive us our sins for thy name's sake:	⁹ You have transferred a vineyard from Egypt. You have cast out the Gentiles, and planted it.
¹⁰ Lest they should say among the Gentiles: Where is their God? And let him be made known among the nations before our eyes, By the revenging the blood of thy servants, which hath been shed:	¹⁰ You were the leader of the journey in its sight. You planted its roots, and it filled the earth.
¹¹ let the sighing of the prisoners come in before thee. According to the greatness of thy arm, take possession of the children of them that have been put to death.	¹¹ Its shadow covered the hills, and its branches covered the cedars of God.
¹² And render to our neighbours sevenfold in their bosom: the reproach wherewith they have reproached thee, O Lord.	¹² It extended its new branches even to the sea, and its new seedlings even to the river.
¹³ But we thy people, and the sheep of thy pasture, will give thanks to thee for ever. We will shew forth thy praise, unto generation and generation.	¹³ So then, why have you destroyed its walls, so that all those who pass by the way gather its grapes?
	¹⁴ The wild boar of the forest has trampled it, and a single wild beast has laid waste to it.
	¹⁵ Turn back, O God of hosts. Look down from heaven, and see, and visit this vineyard;
	¹⁶ and complete what your right hand has planted, and look upon the son of man, whom you have confirmed for yourself.
	¹⁷ Whatever has been set on fire and dug under will perish at the rebuke of your countenance.
	¹⁸ Let your hand be over the man on your right, and over the son of man, whom you have confirmed for yourself.
	¹⁹ For we do not depart from you, and you will revive us. And we will invoke your name.
	²⁰ O Lord, God of hosts, convert us. And reveal your face, and we will be saved.
