Psalm 80: Turn us again

Read Psalm 80:1-19 before you meet.

In a few lines

The WEB's branch in 80:15 is ben, son, and "the branch that you made strong for yourself" (80:15) and "the son of man whom you made strong for yourself" (80:17) end with the same Hebrew verb and for yourself. And each time the line "Turn us again" comes, the name grows: God, God of Armies, LORD God of Armies.

The verse to carry

“Turn us again, LORD God of Armies. Cause your face to shine, and we will be saved.”

Psalm 80:19

To talk about

  1. 1. Three times the psalm prays, "Turn us again" (80:3, 80:7, 80:19), asking God to bring his people back. Where in your life would you pray that for yourself?

  2. 2. "You have fed them with the bread of tears" (80:5). The psalm says hard things to God plainly. What would you find hard to say to God that plainly?

  3. 3. Before it asks God to "visit this vine" (80:14), the psalm tells him what he did for it (80:8-11). What has God done that you would want to remember before you ask him for help?
