Psalms 80:9
King James Version
“Thou preparedst before it, and didst cause it to take deep root, and it filled the land.”
Context
6Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbours: and our enemies laugh among themselves.
7Turn us again, O God of hosts, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.
8Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt: thou hast cast out the heathen, and planted it.
9Thou preparedst before it, and didst cause it to take deep root, and it filled the land.
10The hills were covered with the shadow of it, and the boughs thereof the goodly cedars.
11She sent out her boughs unto the sea, and her branches unto the river.
12Why hast thou broken down her hedges, so that all they which pass by the way do pluck her?
