| 2 ὁ ποιμαίνων τὸν Ισραηλ πρόσχες ὁ ὁδηγῶν ὡσεὶ πρόβατα τὸν Ιωσηφ ὁ καθήμενος ἐπὶ τῶν χερουβιν ἐμφάνηθι 3 ἐναντίον Εφραιμ καὶ Βενιαμιν καὶ Μανασση ἐξέγειρον τὴν δυναστείαν σου καὶ ἐλθὲ εἰς τὸ σῶσαι ἡμᾶς 4 ὁ θεός ἐπίστρεψον ἡμᾶς καὶ ἐπίφανον τὸ πρόσωπόν σου καὶ σωθησόμεθα 5 κύριε ὁ θεὸς τῶν δυνάμεων ἕως πότε ὀργίζῃ ἐπὶ τὴν προσευχὴν τοῦ δούλου σου 6 ψωμιεῖς ἡμᾶς ἄρτον δακρύων καὶ ποτιεῖς ἡμᾶς ἐν δάκρυσιν ἐν μέτρῳ 7 ἔθου ἡμᾶς εἰς ἀντιλογίαν τοῖς γείτοσιν ἡμῶν καὶ οἱ ἐχθροὶ ἡμῶν ἐμυκτήρισαν ἡμᾶς 8 κύριε ὁ θεὸς τῶν δυνάμεων ἐπίστρεψον ἡμᾶς καὶ ἐπίφανον τὸ πρόσωπόν σου καὶ σωθησόμεθα διάψαλμα 9 ἄμπελον ἐξ Αἰγύπτου μετῆρας ἐξέβαλες ἔθνη καὶ κατεφύτευσας αὐτήν 10 ὡδοποίησας ἔμπροσθεν αὐτῆς καὶ κατεφύτευσας τὰς ῥίζας αὐτῆς καὶ ἐπλήσθη ἡ γῆ 11 ἐκάλυψεν ὄρη ἡ σκιὰ αὐτῆς καὶ αἱ ἀναδενδράδες αὐτῆς τὰς κέδρους τοῦ θεοῦ 12 ἐξέτεινεν τὰ κλήματα αὐτῆς ἕως θαλάσσης καὶ ἕως ποταμοῦ τὰς παραφυάδας αὐτῆς 13 ἵνα τί καθεῖλες τὸν φραγμὸν αὐτῆς καὶ τρυγῶσιν αὐτὴν πάντες οἱ παραπορευόμενοι τὴν ὁδόν 14 ἐλυμήνατο αὐτὴν σῦς ἐκ δρυμοῦ καὶ μονιὸς ἄγριος κατενεμήσατο αὐτήν 15 ὁ θεὸς τῶν δυνάμεων ἐπίστρεψον δή ἐπίβλεψον ἐξ οὐρανοῦ καὶ ἰδὲ καὶ ἐπίσκεψαι τὴν ἄμπελον ταύτην 16 καὶ κατάρτισαι αὐτήν ἣν ἐφύτευσεν ἡ δεξιά σου καὶ ἐπὶ υἱὸν ἀνθρώπου ὃν ἐκραταίωσας σεαυτῷ 17 ἐμπεπυρισμένη πυρὶ καὶ ἀνεσκαμμένη ἀπὸ ἐπιτιμήσεως τοῦ προσώπου σου ἀπολοῦνται 18 γενηθήτω ἡ χείρ σου ἐ{P'} ἄνδρα δεξιᾶς σου καὶ ἐπὶ υἱὸν ἀνθρώπου ὃν ἐκραταίωσας σεαυτῷ 19 καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀποστῶμεν ἀπὸ σοῦ ζωώσεις ἡμᾶς καὶ τὸ ὄνομά σου ἐπικαλεσόμεθα 20 κύριε ὁ θεὸς τῶν δυνάμεων ἐπίστρεψον ἡμᾶς καὶ ἐπίφανον τὸ πρόσωπόν σου καὶ σωθησόμεθα | 2 Give audience, thou that art the guide of Israel, that leadest Joseph with a shepherd’s care. Thou who art enthroned above the Cherubim, 3 reveal thyself to Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasses; exert thy sovereign strength, and come to our aid. 4 O God, restore us to our own; smile upon us, and we shall find deliverance. 5 Lord God of hosts, wilt thou always turn away in anger from thy servants’ prayer; 6 daily wilt thou allot us, for food, for drink, only the full measure of our tears? 7 Thou hast made us a coveted prize to our neighbours, enemies mock at our ill fortune! 8 O God of hosts, restore us to our own; smile upon us, and we shall find deliverance. 9 Long ago, thou didst bring a vine out of Egypt, rooting out the heathen to plant it here; 10 thou didst prepare the way for its spreading, and it took root where thou hadst planted it, filled the whole land. 11 How it overshadowed the hills, how the cedars, divinely tall, were overtopped by its branches! 12 It spread out its tendrils to the sea, its shoots as far as the great river. 13 Why is it that in these days thou hast levelled its wall, for every passer-by to rob it of its fruit? 14 See how the wild boar ravages it, how it gives pasture to every beast that roams! 15 God of hosts, relent, look down from heaven, look to this vine, that needs thy care. 16 Revive the stock which thy own hand has planted, branches that by thee throve, and throve for thee. 17 Death be in thy frown for the men that have cut it down and burned it. 18 Thy chosen friends, a race[1] by thee thriving, and thriving for thee, O let thy hand protect them still! 19 Henceforth we will never forsake thee; grant us life, and we will live only to invoke thy name. 20 Lord God of hosts, restore us to our own; smile upon us, and we shall find deliverance. | 2 Qui regis Israël, intende; qui deducis velut ovem Joseph. Qui sedes super cherubim, manifestare 3 coram Ephraim, Benjamin, et Manasse. Excita potentiam tuam, et veni, ut salvos facias nos. 4 Deus, converte nos, et ostende faciem tuam, et salvi erimus. 5 Domine Deus virtutum, quousque irasceris super orationem servi tui? 6 cibabis nos pane lacrimarum, et potum dabis nobis in lacrimis in mensura? 7 Posuisti nos in contradictionem vicinis nostris, et inimici nostri subsannaverunt nos. 8 Deus virtutum, converte nos, et ostende faciem tuam, et salvi erimus. 9 Vineam de Ægypto transtulisti: ejecisti gentes, et plantasti eam. 10 Dux itineris fuisti in conspectu ejus; plantasti radices ejus, et implevit terram. 11 Operuit montes umbra ejus, et arbusta ejus cedros Dei. 12 Extendit palmites suos usque ad mare, et usque ad flumen propagines ejus. 13 Ut quid destruxisti maceriam ejus, et vindemiant eam omnes qui prætergrediuntur viam? 14 Exterminavit eam aper de silva, et singularis ferus depastus est eam. 15 Deus virtutum, convertere, respice de cælo, et vide, et visita vineam istam: 16 et perfice eam quam plantavit dextera tua, et super filium hominis quem confirmasti tibi. 17 Incensa igni et suffossa, ab increpatione vultus tui peribunt. 18 Fiat manus tua super virum dexteræ tuæ, et super filium hominis quem confirmasti tibi. 19 Et non discedimus a te: vivificabis nos, et nomen tuum invocabimus. 20 Domine Deus virtutum, converte nos, et ostende faciem tuam, et salvi erimus. |
[1] Literally, ‘the man of thy right hand, the son of man whom thou hast strengthened for thyself’. This probably refers to Israel personified.
