Chapter 81

1


 

   For the Chief Musician; set to the Gittith. [A Psalm] of Asaph. Sing aloud unto God our strength: Make a joyful noise unto the God of Jacob.  

 

 

-

2


 

  Raise a song, and bring hither the timbrel, The pleasant harp with the psaltery.  

 

 

-

3


 

  Blow the trumpet at the new moon, At the full moon, on our feast-day.  

 

 

-

4


 

  For it is a statute for Israel, An ordinance of the God of Jacob.  

 

 

-

5


 

  He appointed it in Joseph for a testimony, When he went out over the land of Egypt, [Where] I heard a language that I knew not.  

 

 

-

6


 

  I removed his shoulder from the burden: His hands were freed from the basket.  

 

 

-

7


 

  Thou calledst in trouble, and I delivered thee; I answered thee in the secret place of thunder; I proved thee at the waters of Meribah. Selah  

 

 

-

8


 

  Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee: O Israel, if thou wouldest hearken unto me!  

 

 

-

9


 

  There shall no strange god be in thee; Neither shalt thou worship any foreign god.  

 

 

-

10


 

  I am Jehovah thy God, Who brought thee up out of the land of Egypt: Open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.  

 

 

-

11


 

  But my people hearkened not to my voice; And Israel would none of me.  

 

 

-

12


 

  So I let them go after the stubbornness of their heart, That they might walk in their own counsels.  

 

 

-

13


 

  Oh that my people would hearken unto me, That Israel would walk in my ways!  

 

 

-

14


 

  I would soon subdue their enemies, And turn my hand against their adversaries.  

 

 

-

15


 

  The haters of Jehovah should submit themselves unto him: But their time should endure for ever.  

 

 

-

16


 

  He would feed them also with the finest of the wheat; And with honey out of the rock would I satisfy thee.
