The psalmist in his prayer complaineth of the miseries of the Church.

1 ¶ [[To the chief Musicianºª upon² Shoshannimeduth,º A Psalmº of Asaph.]]º Give ear,ºª O Shepherdºª of Israel,º thou that leadestºª Josephº like a flock;º thou that dwellestºª [between] the cherubims,º shine forth.ºª 2 Beforeº Ephraimº and Benjaminº and Manassehº stir upºª² thy strength,º and come¹ª² [and] saveº us. 3 Turn us again,ºª O God,º and cause thy faceº to shine;ºª and we shall be saved.ºª 4 O LORDº Godº of hosts,º how long²² wilt thou be angryºª against the prayerº of thy people?º 5 Thou feedestºª them with the breadº of tears;º and givest them tearsº to drinkºª in great measure.º 6 Thou makestºª us a strifeº unto our neighbours:º and our enemiesºª laughºª among themselves. 7 Turn us again,ºª O Godº of hosts,º and cause thy faceº to shine;ºª and we shall be saved.ºª

God's former favours are turned into judgments.

8 Thou hast broughtºª a vineº out of Egypt:º² thou hast cast outºª the heathen,º and plantedºª it. 9 Thou preparedstºª [room] beforeº it, and didst cause it to take deep¹ root,ºª² and it filledºª the land.º 10 The hillsº were coveredºª with the shadowº of it, and the boughsº thereof [were like] the goodlyº cedars.º 11 She sent outºª her boughsº unto² the sea,º and her branchesº unto² the river.º 12 Why² hast thou [then] broken downºª her hedges,º so that all² they which pass¹ª by² the wayº do pluckºª her? 13 The boarº out of the woodº² doth wasteºª it, and the wild beastº of the fieldº doth devourºª it.
