◄ PSA 81 ► ║ ©

0 1 An exhortation to a solemne praising of God. 4 God challengeth that duetie by reason of his benefits. 8 God exhorting to obedience, complaineth of their disobedience, which proueth their owne hurt.

¶ To the chiefe Musician vpon Gittith. A Psalme of Asaph.

LXXXI ¶ Sing alowd vnto God our strength: make a ioyfull noise vnto the God of Iacob. 2 Take a Psalme, and bring hither the timbrell: the pleasant harpe with the psalterie. 3 Blow vp the trumpet in the new Moone: in the time appointed on our solemne feast day. 4 For this was a Statute for Israel: and a Law of the God of Iacob. 5 [fn]This he ordained in Ioseph for a testimonie, when he went out through the land of Egypt: where I heard a language, that I vnderstood not. 6 [fn]I remoued his shoulder from the burden: his handes were deliuered from the pots. 7 [fn][fn]Thou calledst in trouble, and I deliuered thee, I answered thee in the secret place of thunder: I proued thee at the waters of Meribah. Selah. 8 Heare, O my people, and I will testifie vnto thee: O Israel, if thou wilt hearken vnto me: 9 There shall no strange God be in thee: neither shalt thou worship any strange God. 10 I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it. 11 But my people would not hearken to my voice: and Israel would none of me. 12 [fn][fn]So I gaue them vp vnto their owne hearts lust: and they walked in in their owne counsels. 13 O that my people had hearkned vnto me: and Israel had walked in my wayes! 14 I should soone haue subdued their enemies, and turned my hand against their aduersaries. 15 [fn]The haters of the LORD should haue submitted themselues vnto him: but their time should haue endured for euer. 16 [fn]Hee should haue fedde them also with the finest of the wheat: and with honie out of the rocke, should I haue satisfied thee.
