      | ¶ | [[To the chief Musician upon Gittith, [A Psalm] of Asaph.]] Sing aloud unto God our strength: make a joyful noise unto the God of Jacob. | |
 | Take a psalm, and bring hither the timbrel, the pleasant harp with the psaltery. | ||
| Blow up the trumpet in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our solemn feast day. | ||
| For this [was] a statute for Israel, [and] a law of the God of Jacob. | ||
| This he ordained in Joseph [for] a testimony, when he went out through the land of Egypt: [where] I heard a language [that] I understood not. | ||
| I removed his shoulder from the burden: his hands were delivered from the pots. | ||
| Thou calledst in trouble, and I delivered thee; I answered thee in the secret place of thunder: I proved thee at the waters of Meribah. Selah. | ||
 | Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee: O Israel, if thou wilt hearken unto me; | ||
| There shall no strange god be in thee; neither shalt thou worship any strange god. | ||
| I [am] the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it. | ||
| But my people would not hearken to my voice; and Israel would none of me. | ||
| So I gave them up unto their own hearts' lust: [and] they walked in their own counsels. | ||
| Oh that my people had hearkened unto me, [and] Israel had walked in my ways! | ||
| I should soon have subdued their enemies, and turned my hand against their adversaries. | ||
| The haters of the LORD should have submitted themselves unto him: but their time should have endured for ever. | ||
 | He should have fed them also with the finest of the wheat: and with honey out of the rock should I have satisfied thee. |
