1To the chief Musician5329 upon Gittith1665, A Psalm of Asaph623. Sing aloud7442 unto God430 our strength5797: make a joyful noise7321 unto the God430 of Jacob3290.
2Take5375 a psalm2172, and bring5414 hither the timbrel8596, the pleasant5273 harp3658 with the psaltery5035.
3Blow up8628 the trumpet7782 in the new moon2320, in the time appointed3677, on our solemn feast2282 day3117.
4For this was a statute2706 for Israel3478, and a law4941 of the God430 of Jacob3290.
5This he ordained7760 in Joseph3084 for a testimony5715, when he went out3318 through the land776 of Egypt4714: where I heard8085 a language8193 that I understood3045 not.
6I removed5493 his shoulder7926 from the burden5447: his hands3709 were delivered5674 from the pots1731.
7Thou calledst7121 in trouble6869, and I delivered2502 thee; I answered6030 thee in the secret place5643 of thunder7482: I proved974 thee at the waters4325 of Meribah4809. Selah5542.
8Hear8085, O my people5971, and I will testify5749 unto thee: O Israel3478, if thou wilt hearken8085 unto me;
9There shall no strange2114 god410 be in thee; neither shalt thou worship7812 any strange5236 god410.
10I am the LORD3068 thy God430, which brought5927 thee out of the land776 of Egypt4714: open thy mouth6310 wide7337, and I will fill4390 it.
11But my people5971 would not hearken8085 to my voice6963; and Israel3478 would14 none of me.
12So I gave them up7971 unto their own hearts'3820 lust8307: and they walked3212 in their own counsels4156.
13Oh3863 that my people5971 had hearkened8085 unto me, and Israel3478 had walked1980 in my ways1870!
14I should soon4592 have subdued3665 their enemies341, and turned7725 my hand3027 against their adversaries6862.
15The haters8130 of the LORD3068 should have submitted3584 themselves unto him: but their time6256 should have endured for ever5769.
16He should have fed398 them also with the finest2459 of the wheat2406: and with honey1706 out of the rock6697 should I have satisfied7646 thee.
