Of Asaph. Make a song to God our strength: make a glad cry to the God of Jacob. +Take up the melody, playing on an instrument of music, even on corded instruments. +Let the horn be sounded in the time of the new moon, at the full moon, on our holy feast-day: +For this is a rule for Israel, and a law of the God of Jacob. +He gave it to Joseph as a witness, when he went out over the land of Egypt; then the words of a strange tongue were sounding in my ears. +I took the weight from his back; his hands were made free from the baskets. +You gave a cry in your trouble, and I made you free; I gave you an answer in the secret place of the thunder; I put you to the test at the waters of Meribah. (Selah.) +Give ear, O my people, and I will give you my word, O Israel, if you will only do as I say! +There is to be no strange god among you; you are not to give worship to any other god. +I am the Lord your God, who took you up from the land of Egypt: let your mouth be open wide, so that I may give you food. +But my people did not give ear to my voice; Israel would have nothing to do with me. +So I gave them up to the desires of their hearts; that they might go after their evil purposes. +If only my people would give ear to me, walking in my ways! +I would quickly overcome their haters: my hand would be turned against those who make war on them. +The haters of the Lord would be broken, and their destruction would be eternal. +I would give them the best grain for food; you would be full of honey from the rock. |
