|
|
1 |
Sing aloud to God
our strength;
Make a joyful shout to the God of Jacob.
|
|
|
2 |
Raise a song and
strike the timbrel,
The pleasant harp with the lute.
|
|
3 |
Blow the trumpet at
the time of the New Moon,
At the full moon, on our solemn feast day.
|
|
4 |
For this is a
statute for Israel,
A law of the God of Jacob.
|
|
5 |
This He established
in Joseph as a testimony,
When He went throughout the land of Egypt,
Where I heard a language I did not understand.
|
|
6 |
“I removed his
shoulder from the burden;
His hands were freed from the baskets.
|
|
7 |
You called in
trouble, and I delivered you;
I answered you in the secret place of thunder;
I tested you at the waters of Meribah. Selah
|
|
8 |
“Hear, O My people,
and I will admonish you!
O Israel, if you will listen to Me!
|
|
9 |
There shall be no
foreign god among you;
Nor shall you worship any foreign god.
|
|
10 |
I am the LORD your
God,
Who brought you out of the land of Egypt;
Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.
|
|
11 |
“But My people would
not heed My voice,
And Israel would have none of Me.
|
|
12 |
So I gave them over
to their own stubborn heart,
To walk in their own counsels.
|
|
13 |
“Oh, that My people
would listen to 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 the
LORD would pretend submission to Him,
But their fate would endure forever.
|
|
16 |
He would have fed
them also with the finest of wheat;
And with honey from the rock I would have satisfied you.”
