  • 2 Begin the music, strike the timbrel, play the melodious harp and lyre.
  • 3 Sound the ram’s horn at the New Moon, and when the moon is full, on the day of our festival;
  • 4 this is a decree for Israel, an ordinance of the God of Jacob.
  • 5 When God went out against Egypt, he established it as a statute for Joseph. I heard an unknown voice say:
  • 6 “I removed the burden from their shoulders; their hands were set free from the basket.
  • 7 In your distress you called and I rescued you, I answered you out of a thundercloud; I tested you at the waters of Meribah. 81:7 The Hebrew has Selah (a word of uncertain meaning) here.
  • 8 Hear me, my people, and I will warn you— if you would only listen to me, Israel!
  • 9 You shall have no foreign god among you; you shall not worship any god other than me.
  • 10 I am the Lord your God, who brought you up out of Egypt. Open wide your mouth and I will fill it.
  • 11 “But my people would not listen to me; Israel would not submit to me.
  • 12 So I gave them over to their stubborn hearts to follow their own devices.
  • 13 “If my people would only listen to me, if Israel would only follow my ways,
  • 14 how quickly I would subdue their enemies and turn my hand against their foes!
  • 15 Those who hate the Lord would cringe before him, and their punishment would last forever.
  • 16 But you would be fed with the finest of wheat; with honey from the rock I would satisfy you.”
