₁Listen to us, O Shepherd of Israel;

hear us, leader of your flock.

Seated on your throne above the winged creatures,

₂reveal yourself to the tribes of Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh.

Show us your strength;

come and save us!

₃Bring us back, O God!

Show us your mercy, and we will be saved!

₄How much longer, LORD God Almighty,

will you be angry with your people's prayers?

₅You have given us sorrow to eat,

a large cup of tears to drink.

₆You let the surrounding nations fight over our land;

our enemies insult us.

₇Bring us back, Almighty God!

Show us your mercy, and we will be saved!

₁₇Preserve and protect the people you have chosen,

the nation you made so strong.

₁₈We will never turn away from you again;

keep us alive, and we will praise you.

₁₉Bring us back, LORD God Almighty.

Show us your mercy, and we will be saved.
