Scriptures

King James Version (KJV)

Psalm 79
¹¹ Let the sighing of the prisoner come before thee; according to the greatness of thy power preserve thou those that are appointed to die;
¹² And render unto our neighbours sevenfold into their bosom their reproach, wherewith they have reproached thee, O Lord.
¹³ So we thy people and sheep of thy pasture will give thee thanks for ever: we will shew forth thy praise to all generations.
Psalm 80
¹ Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; thou that dwellest between the cherubims, shine forth.
² Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh stir up thy strength, and come and save us.
³ Turn us again, O God, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.
⁴ O LORD God of hosts, how long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy people?
⁵ Thou feedest them with the bread of tears; and givest them tears to drink in great measure.
⁶ Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbours: and our enemies laugh among themselves.
⁷ Turn us again, O God of hosts, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.
⁸ Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt: thou hast cast out the heathen, and planted it.
