< Psalms 80 >

1 [Yahweh], you [who lead us like] a shepherd leads his flock [of sheep], listen to us Israeli people. You sit on your throne [in the Very Holy Place in the temple], above the [carvings of] winged creatures.
O! Pastor de Israel, escucha: tú que pastoreas, como a ovejas, a José: tú que estás entre los querubines, resplandece.
2 Show yourself to [the people of the tribes of] Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh! Show us that you are powerful and come and rescue us!
Despierta tu valentía delante de Efraím, y de Ben-jamín, y de Manasés: y ven a salvarnos.
3 God, cause our nation to be strong like it was before; be kind to us [IDM] in order that we may be saved [from our enemies.]
O! Dios, háznos tornar: y haz resplandecer tu rostro, y seremos salvos.
4 Yahweh, you who are the commander of the armies of heaven, how long will you be angry with us, your people, when we pray to you?
Jehová Dios de los ejércitos, ¿hasta cuándo te airarás contra la oración de tu pueblo?
5 [It is as though] the only food and drink that you have given us is a cup full of our tears!
Dísteles a comer pan de lágrimas: y dísteles a beber lágrimas con medida.
6 You have allowed the people-groups that surround us to fight with [each other to decide which part of our land each of them will take]; our enemies laugh at us.
Pusístenos por contienda a nuestros vecinos: y nuestros enemigos se burlan de nosotros entre sí.
7 God, commander of the armies of heaven, cause our nation to be strong like it was before! Be kind to us in order that we may be saved!
O! Dios de los ejércitos, háznos tornar: y haz resplandecer tu rostro, y seremos salvos.
8 [Our ancestors were like] a grapevine [MET] that you brought out of Egypt; you expelled the other people-groups [from this land], and you put your people in their land.
Hiciste venir la vid de Egipto: echaste a los Gentiles, y la plantaste.
9 [Like people] clear ground to plant a grapevine [MET], [you cleared out the people who were living in this land for us to live in it]. [Like] the roots of a grapevine go deep down into the ground and spread [MET], [you enabled our ancestors to prosper and start living in towns all over this land].
Limpiaste el lugar delante de ella: e hiciste arraigar sus raíces, e hinchió la tierra.
10 [Like huge] grapevines cover the hills with their shade and their branches are taller than big cedar [trees] [MET, HYP],
Los montes fueron cubiertos de su sombra: y sus ramas como cedros de Dios.
11 [your people ruled all of Canaan], from the [Mediterranean] Sea [in the west] to the [Euphrates] River [in the east].
Enviaste o! Señor, sus ramas hasta la mar: y hasta el río sus mugrones.
12 So why have you abandoned us and [allowed our enemies to] tear down our walls [RHQ]? [You are like] someone who tears down the fences [around his vineyard], with the result that all [the people] who pass by [can] steal the grapes,
¿Por qué aportillaste sus vallados, y la cogieron todos los que pasaron por el camino?
13 and wild pigs [can] trample [the vines], and wild animals [can also] eat [the grapes].
Destruyóla el puerco montés, y la pació la bestia del campo.
14 You who are the commander of the armies of heaven, (turn to/stop abandoning) us! Look down from heaven and see [what is happening to] us! Come and rescue [us who are like] [MET] your grapevine,
O! Dios de los ejércitos, vuelve ahora: mira desde el cielo, y vé, y visita esta vid.
15 who are [like] the young vine that you [SYN] planted and caused to grow!
Y la planta que tu diestra plantó: y sobre el mugrón que tú corroboraste para ti.
16 Our enemies have torn down and burned everything in our land; look at them angrily and get rid of them!
Quemada a fuego está, y talada: perezcan por la reprensión de tu rostro.
17 But strengthen [us] people whom you have chosen [IDM], [us] Israeli people whom you [previously] caused to be very strong.
Sea tu mano sobre el varón de tu diestra: sobre el hijo del hombre que tú corroboraste para ti.
18 When you do that, we will never turn away from you again; (revive us/cause us to be again like we were previously), and [then] we will praise/worship you.
Y no nos tornaremos de ti: darnos has vida, e invocaremos tu nombre.
19 Yahweh, commander of the armies of heaven, restore us; be kind to us in order that we may be rescued [from our enemies]!
O! Jehová, Dios de los ejércitos, háznos tornar, haz resplandecer tu rostro, y seremos salvos.
