14

Come back, O God of armies: from heaven let your eyes be turned to this vine, and give your mind to it,

15

Even to the tree which was planted by your right hand, and to the branch which you made strong for yourself.

16

It is burned with fire; it is cut down: they are made waste by the wrath of your face.

17

Let your hand be on the man of your right hand, on the son of man whom you made strong for yourself.

18

So will we not be turned back from you; keep us in life, and we will give praise to your name.

Take us back, O Lord God of armies; let us see the shining of your face, and let us be safe.
