Psalms 81:1-7
Oh, That My People Would Listen to Me
To the choirmaster: according to aThe Gittith. ▼▼Probably a musical or liturgical term Of cAsaph.
1 dSing aloud to God our strength;eshout for joy to the God of Jacob!
2Raise a song; sound fthe tambourine,
gthe sweet lyre with hthe harp.
3Blow the trumpet at ithe new moon,
at the full moon, on our feast day.
4 For it is a statute for Israel,
a rule ▼
▼Or just decree
of the God of Jacob.5He made it ka decree in lJoseph
when he mwent out over ▼
▼Or against
the land of Egypt.oI hear a language pI had not known:
6“I qrelieved your ▼
▼Hebrew his; also next line
shoulder of sthe burden;your hands were freed from the basket.
7In distress you tcalled, and I delivered you;
I uanswered you in the secret place of thunder;
I vtested you at the waters of Meribah. Selah
