them.
18. The sound of your thunder rumbled round,
and your lightening illumined
the world;
the earth trembled and quaked.
19. Your way was through the sea,
and your paths through many waters,
but your footsteps could not be known.
20. You guided your people as sheep,
by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
Psalm 79
1. Attend, O Shepherd of Israel,
who leads Joseph like a flock.
You who sit upon the cherubim,
manifest yourself.
2. Before Ephraim, Benjamin
and Manasseh,
stir up your power
and come to our salvation.
3. Turn us around, O God,
let your face shine,
and we shall be saved.
4. O Lord, the God of hosts,
how long will you be angry
with the prayer of your servant?
5. How long will you feed us
with the bread of tears,
and cause us to drink tears by measure?
6. You have made us a laughing stock
to our neighbors;
and our enemies have mocked us
round about.
7. Turn us around, O God,
let your face shine,
and we shall be saved.
8. You have transplanted a vine out
of Egypt;
your have uprooted the heathen and planted it.
9. You prepared a way before it,
and caused it to take root,
and the land was filled.
10. Its leafy shade covered
the mountain,
and its tendrils, the cedars of God.
11. It sent forth its branches to the sea,
and its spreading boughs to the river.
12. Then why have you broken down
its hedge,
that all who pass by the roadside may pluck it?
13. The boar from the forest
has laid it waste;
and the wild beast has devoured it.
14. O God of Hosts, return
we beseech you;
look down from heaven and see and visit this vine.
15. Restore that which your right hand has planted,
and look on the Son of Man whom you strengthened for yourself.
16. It is burnt up and uprooted,
at the rebuke of your countenance they will perish.
17. Let your hand be upon your right hand man,
on the Son of Man whom you made strong for yourself.
18. Thus will we not depart from you;
you shall give us life,
and we will call upon your name.
19. O Lord, God of hosts,
turn us around.
Let your face shine
and we shall be saved.
Psalm 80
1. Exult with joy in God our helper!
Shout aloud to the God of Jacob!
2. Take up a psalm and produce
the timbrel,
the sweet sounding psaltery with a harp.
3. Blare the trumpet at the new moon,
in the glorious day of our feast.
4. For it is an ordinance for Israel,
and a statute written by the God
of Jacob,
5. who established it as a testimony
in Joseph,
when he came forth from the land
of Egypt;
he heard a language which he understood not.
6. He removed his back from burdens;
his hands slaved away
at making baskets.
7. In affliction you called upon me,
and I delivered you.
I heard you in the secret place
of the tempest;
I tested you in the water
of contradiction.
8. Hear, my people, and I will testify
to you,
O Israel, if you will hearken to me.
9. There shall be no new
