Psalm 80
1. The psalmist in his prayer complains of the miseries of the church
8. God's former favors are turned into judgments
14. He prays for deliverance














Then we will not turn away from You; revive us, and we will call on Your name
Then we will not turn away from You
This phrase is a declaration of steadfastness and commitment. The Hebrew root for "turn away" is "שׁוּב" (shuv), which means to return or to turn back. In the context of the Old Testament, turning away from God often led to idolatry and sin. The psalmist expresses a desire for a renewed relationship with God, emphasizing the importance of faithfulness. Historically, Israel's relationship with God was marked by cycles of faithfulness and rebellion. This plea reflects a deep yearning for stability and constancy in their devotion to God.

revive us
The word "revive" comes from the Hebrew "חָיָה" (chayah), meaning to live, to have life, or to restore to life. This is a call for spiritual renewal and awakening. In the biblical context, revival is not just about physical restoration but a profound spiritual reawakening. The psalmist seeks God's intervention to breathe new life into the people, reminiscent of the revivals seen throughout Israel's history, where God would restore His people after periods of spiritual decline. This plea is timeless, resonating with the Christian desire for personal and communal revival.

and we will call on Your name
To "call on Your name" signifies invoking God's presence, seeking His guidance, and worshiping Him. The Hebrew word for "call" is "קָרָא" (qara), which implies a deep, earnest appeal. In ancient Israel, calling on the name of the Lord was an act of worship and dependence, acknowledging God's sovereignty and power. The name of God represents His character and His covenant relationship with His people. This phrase underscores the psalmist's commitment to worship and rely on God, recognizing that true revival leads to a deeper, more intimate relationship with the Creator.

Verse 18. - So will not we go back from thee; i.e. "we shall not go hack from thee any more." Gratitude for our deliverance will hind us fast to thy service. Quicken us (comp. Hosea 6:2). The prayer is for national rather than spiritual life - for a recovery from the destruction which has almost come upon them (ver. 16). And we will call upon thy Name; i.e. we will be faithful to thee henceforth; we will not go after other gods, but "call upon" thee, and thee only. The poet makes himself the spokesman of the whole nation.
