Read the chapter

1Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; thou that dwellest between the cherubims, shine forth. ✦ 2Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh stir up thy strength, and come and save us. ✦ 3Turn us again, O God, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved. ✦ 4O LORD God of hosts, how long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy people? ✦ 5Thou feedest them with the bread of tears; and givest them tears to drink in great measure. ✦ 6Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbours: and our enemies laugh among themselves. ✦ 7Turn us again, O God of hosts, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved. ✦ 8Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt: thou hast cast out the heathen, and planted it. ✦ 9Thou preparedst room before it, and didst cause it to take deep root, and it filled the land. ✦ 10The hills were covered with the shadow of it, and the boughs thereof were like the goodly cedars. ✦ 11She sent out her boughs unto the sea, and her branches unto the river. ✦ 12Why hast thou then broken down her hedges, so that all they which pass by the way do pluck her? ✦ 13The boar out of the wood doth waste it, and the wild beast of the field doth devour it. ✦ 14Return, we beseech thee, O God of hosts: look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this vine; ✦ 15And the vineyard which thy right hand hath planted, and the branch that thou madest strong for thyself. ✦ 16It is burned with fire, it is cut down: they perish at the rebuke of thy countenance. ✦ 17Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, upon the son of man whom thou madest strong for thyself. ✦ 18So will not we go back from thee: quicken us, and we will call upon thy name. ✦ 19Turn us again, O LORD God of hosts, cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved. ✦

Christ at the center

The Psalms are Christ's own prayer book and a gallery of his portraits — the suffering one of Psalm 22, the risen Lord of Psalm 16, the priest-king of Psalm 110, the Son to whom the nations are given.

How Psalms 80 points to him is part of the one story that runs through all Scripture — meet Jesus at the heart of the web, or follow a trail that traces him from Genesis to Revelation.
