To the Chief Musician. Set to 'The Lilies.' A Testimony of Asaph. A Psalm. Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, You who lead Joseph like a flock; You who dwell between the cherubim, shine forth!

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!

6
You have made us a strife to our neighbors, And our enemies laugh among themselves.
