Psalms 80:9

7 Restore us, O God of Hosts, and cause Your face to shine upon us, that we may be saved.

8 You uprooted a vine from Egypt; You drove out the nations and transplanted it.

You cleared the ground for it, and it took root and filled the land.

10 The mountains were covered by its shade, and the mighty cedars with its branches.

11 It sent out its branches to the Sea, and its shoots toward the River.

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.
