Psalms 80

Asaph presents a corporate lament on behalf of Israel, comparing the nation to a vine that YHWH planted and nurtured in the Promised Land, but which has been broken down and devoured by enemies as punishment for the people's disobedience.[1][4] The psalmist pleads with YHWH, who dwells between the cherubim, to restore His favor, make His face shine upon Israel, and return the nation to strength and unity.[1][4]
