|
|
1 |
Sing aloud unto God
our strength: make a joyful noise unto the God of Jacob.
|
|
|
2 |
Take a psalm, and
bring hither the timbrel, the pleasant harp with the psaltery.
|
|
3 |
Blow up the trumpet
in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our solemn feast day.
|
|
4 |
For this was a
statute for Israel, and a law of the God of Jacob. |
|
5 |
This he ordained in
Joseph for a testimony, when he went out through the land of Egypt: where I
heard a language that I understood not.
|
|
6 |
I removed his
shoulder from the burden: his hands were delivered from the pots.
|
|
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 wilt hearken unto me;
|
|
9 |
There shall no
strange god be in thee; neither shalt thou worship any strange god.
|
|
10 |
I am the LORD thy
God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I
will fill it.
|
|
11 |
But my people would
not hearken to my voice; and Israel would none of me.
|
|
12 |
So I gave them up
unto their own hearts’ lust: and they walked in their own counsels.
|
|
13 |
Oh that my people
had hearkened unto me, and Israel had walked in my ways!
|
|
14 |
I should soon have
subdued their enemies, and turned my hand against their adversaries.
|
|
15 |
The haters of the
LORD should have submitted themselves unto him: but their time should have
endured for ever.
|
|
16 |
He should have fed
them also with the finest of the wheat: and with honey out of the rock
should I have satisfied thee.
