1. GIVE EAR, O Shepherd of Israel, You Who lead Joseph like a flock; You Who sit enthroned upon the cherubim [of the ark of the covenant], shine forth
2. Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh! Stir up Your might, and come to save us!
3. Restore us again, O God; and cause Your face to shine [in pleasure and approval on us], and we shall be saved!
