Psalms 80:16
14 Return, O God of Hosts, we pray! Look down from heaven and see! Attend to this vine—
15 the root Your right hand has planted, the son You have raised up for Yourself.
Your vine has been cut down and burned; they perish at the rebuke of Your countenance.
17 Let Your hand be upon the man at Your right hand, on the son of man You have raised up for Yourself.
18 Then we will not turn away from You; revive us, and we will call on Your name.
This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
