Midras Mazmur 80:20: Midrash Tehillim

יְה֘וָ֤ה אֱלֹהִ֣ים צְבָא֣וֹת הֲשִׁיבֵ֑נוּ הָאֵ֥ר פָּ֝נֶ֗יךָ וְנִוָּשֵֽׁעָה׃

Ya Yang Mahakekal, Allah semesta alam, pulihkanlah kami, sinarilah kami dengan wajah-Mu, maka kami akan diselamatkan.

Midrash Tehillim

Many say to my soul: These are the nations of the world who say to Israel, "Who will allow us to partake with Israel in the goodness of the World to Come?" And Israel replies to them, "With how much suffering, servitude, and martyrdoms have we given ourselves up for the sanctification of God's name, and yet you come to diminish it. May the light of Your countenance shine upon us, O Lord!" Rabbi Huna said in the name of Rabbi Acha: "We are waiting for that which is said, 'Behold, I will lift up My hand to the nations, and raise up My banner to the peoples' (Isaiah 49:22)." Rabbi Yochanan said: "Israel says before the Holy One, Blessed be He: 'We have nothing but the light of Your countenance,' as it is said, 'O God of hosts, cause Your face to shine, and we shall be saved' (Psalms 80:20)."
