1 Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, Thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; Thou that sittest [above] the cherubim, shine forth.
         
                                
                        2 Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh, stir up thy       might, And come to save us.
         
                                
                        3 Turn us again, O God; And cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
         
                                
                        4 O Jehovah God of hosts, How long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy people?
         
                                
                        5 Thou hast fed them with the bread of tears, And given them tears to drink in large measure.
         
                                
                        6 Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbors; And our enemies laugh among themselves.
         
                                
                        7 Turn us again, O God of hosts; And cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
