81

To the chief MusicianH5329 upon GittithH1665, A Psalm of AsaphH623. Sing aloudH7442 unto GodH430 our strengthH5797: make a joyful noiseH7321 unto the GodH430 of JacobH3290.2TakeH5375 a psalmH2172, and bringH5414 hither the timbrelH8596, the pleasantH5273 harpH3658 with the psalteryH5035.3Blow upH8628 the trumpetH7782 in the new moonH2320, in the time appointedH3677, on our solemn feastH2282 dayH3117.

4For this was a statuteH2706 for IsraelH3478, and a lawH4941 of the GodH430 of JacobH3290.5This he ordainedH7760 in JosephH3084 for a testimonyH5715, when he went outH3318 through the landH776 of EgyptH4714: where I heardH8085 a languageH8193 that I understoodH3045 not.6I removedH5493 his shoulderH7926 from the burdenH5447: his handsH3709 were deliveredH5674 from the potsH1731.7Thou calledstH7121 in troubleH6869, and I deliveredH2502 thee; I answeredH6030 thee in the secret placeH5643 of thunderH7482: I provedH974 thee at the watersH4325 of MeribahH4809. SelahH5542.

8HearH8085, O my peopleH5971, and I will testifyH5749 unto thee: O IsraelH3478, if thou wilt hearkenH8085 unto me;9There shall no strangeH2114 godH410 be in thee; neither shalt thou worshipH7812 any strangeH5236 godH410.10I am the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, which broughtH5927 thee out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714: open thy mouthH6310 wideH7337, and I will fillH4390 it.11But my peopleH5971 would not hearkenH8085 to my voiceH6963; and IsraelH3478 wouldH14 none of me.12So I gave them upH7971 unto their own heartsH3820' lustH8307: and they walkedH3212 in their own counselsH4156.13OhH3863 that my peopleH5971 had hearkenedH8085 unto me, and IsraelH3478 had walkedH1980 in my waysH1870!14I should soonH4592 have subduedH3665 their enemiesH341, and turnedH7725 my handH3027 against their adversariesH6862.15The hatersH8130 of the LORDH3068 should have submittedH3584 themselves unto him: but their timeH6256 should have endured for everH5769.16He should have fedH398 them also with the finestH2459 of the wheatH2406: and with honeyH1706 out of the rockH6697 should I have satisfiedH7646 thee.
