| Psalms 81: (YLT) |
| 1) To the Overseer. -- 'On the Gittith.' By Asaph. Cry aloud to God our strength, Shout to the God of Jacob. |
| 2) Lift up a song, and give out a timbrel, A pleasant harp with psaltery. |
| 3) Blow in the month a trumpet, In the new moon, at the day of our festival, |
| 4) For a statute to Israel it [is], An ordinance of the God of Jacob. |
| 5) A testimony on Joseph He hath placed it, In his going forth over the land of Egypt. A lip, I have not known -- I hear. |
| 6) From the burden his shoulder I turned aside, His hands from the basket pass over. |
| 7) In distress thou hast called and I deliver thee, I answer thee in the secret place of thunder, I try thee by the waters of Meribah. Selah. |
| 8) Hear, O My people, and I testify to thee, O Israel, if thou dost hearken to me: |
| 9) There is not in thee a strange god, And thou bowest not thyself to a strange god. |
| 10) I [am] Jehovah thy God, Who bringeth thee up out of the land of Egypt. Enlarge thy mouth, and I fill it. |
| 11) But, My people hearkened not to My voice, And Israel hath not consented to Me. |
| 12) And I send them away in the enmity of their heart, They walk in their own counsels. |
| 13) O that My people were hearkening to Me, Israel in My ways would walk. |
| 14) As a little thing their enemies I cause to bow, And against their adversaries I turn back My hand, |
| 15) Those hating Jehovah feign obedience to Him, But their time is -- to the age. |
| 16) He causeth him to eat of the fat of wheat, And [with] honey from a rock I satisfy thee! |
