Psalm 80:1-2 Part 2 of 3

Hear us, Shepherd of Israel, you who lead Joseph like a flock. You who sit enthroned between the cherubim, shine forth before Ephraim, Benjamin and Manasseh. Awaken your might; come and save us.
 
You who sit enthroned between the cherubim 
Exodus 25:22  "There, above the cover between the two cherubim that are over the ark of the covenant law, I will meet with you and give you (Moses) all my commands for the Israelites." (see verses 17-21)
 
shine forth before Ephraim, Benjamin and Manasseh 
Numbers 2:18-24  On the west will be the divisions of the camp of Ephraim under their standard. The leader of the people of Ephraim is Elishama son of Ammihud. His division numbers 40,500. The tribe of Manasseh will be next to them. The leader of the people of Manasseh is Gamaliel son of Pedahzur. His division numbers 32,200. The tribe of Benjamin will be next. The leader of the people of Benjamin is Aidan son of Gideoni. His division numbers 35,400. All the men assigned to the camp of Ephraim, according to their divisions, number 108,100. They will set out third.
