\d For the chief musician; set to the Gittith style. A psalm of Asaph.
|
|
\b
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 1 Sing aloud to God our strength;
|
|
\q shout out for joy to the God of Jacob.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 2 Sing a song and play the tambourine,
|
|
\q the pleasant lyre with the harp.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 3 Blow the ram's horn on the day of the new moon,
|
|
\q on the day of the full moon, when our feast day begins.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 4 For it is a statute for Israel,
|
|
\q a decree given by the God of Jacob.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 5 He issued it as a regulation in Joseph
|
|
\q when he went against the land of Egypt,
|
|
\q where I heard a voice that I did not recognize:
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 6 "I removed the burden from his shoulder;
|
|
\q his hands were freed from holding the basket.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 7 In your distress you called out, and I helped you;
|
|
\q I answered you from a dark thundercloud.
|
|
\q I tested you at the waters of Meribah.

|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 8 Listen, my people, for I will warn you,
|
|
\q Israel, if you would only listen to me!
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 9 There must be no foreign god among you;
|
|
\q you must not worship any foreign god.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 10 I am Yahweh your God,
|
|
\q who brought you out of the land of Egypt.
|
|
\q Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 11 But my people did not listen to my words;
|
|
\q Israel did not obey me.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 12 So I gave them over to their own stubborn way
|
|
\q so that they might do what seemed right to them.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 13 Oh, that my people would listen to me;
|
|
\q1 oh, that my people would walk in my paths.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 14 Then I would quickly subdue their enemies
|
|
\q and turn my hand against their oppressors.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 15 May those who hate Yahweh cringe in fear before him!
|
|
\q May they be humiliated forever.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 16 I would feed Israel with the finest wheat;
|
|
\q I would satisfy you with honey out of the rock."
