God Almighty, turn us to come back to you.
Look at us with a smile on your face!
    Then we will be safe.

You pulled us out from Egypt,
    like a vine that you dug out of the ground.
You chased nations out of this land,
    and you planted us here.[a]
You prepared the ground ready for us.
    We put down roots like a vine.[b]
    We grew well and we covered all the land.
