- Kapitel 81 -

Sing for joy to God

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 stringed instrument.
3
Blow a horn in the month, || In the new moon, at the day of our festival,
4
For it [is] a statute to Israel, || An ordinance of the God of Jacob.
5
He has placed ita testimony on Joseph, || In his going forth over the land of Egypt. A lip, I have not known—I hear.
6
I turned aside his shoulder from the burden, || His hands pass over from the basket.
7
In distress you have called and I deliver you, || I answer you in the secret place of thunder, || I try you by the waters of Meribah. Selah.
8
Hear, O My people, and I testify to you, || O Israel, if you listen to me:
9
There is not in you a strange god, || And you do not bow yourself to a strange god.
10
I [am] your God YHWH, || Who brings you up out of the land of Egypt. Enlarge your mouth, and I fill it.
11
But My people did not listen to My voice, || And Israel has 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 listening to Me, || Israel would walk in My ways.
14
As a little thing I cause their enemies to bow, || And I turn back My hand against their adversaries,
15
Those hating YHWH should have feigned [obedience] to Him, || And their time would last for all time.
16
He causes him to eat of the fat of wheat, || And I satisfy you [with] honey from a rock!
