Psalms 80
1Rejoice you⌃ in God our helper; shout aloud to the God of Jacob. 1
2Take a psalm, and produce the timbrel, the pleasant lute with the harp. 1
3Blow the trumpet at the new moon, in the glorious day of + 80:3 Alex. our. your feast. 1
4For this is an ordinance for Israel, and a statute of the God of Jacob. 1
5He made + 80:5 Gr. him, sc. Israel. it to be a testimony in Joseph, when he came forth out of the land of Egypt: he heard a language which he understood not. 1
6He removed his back from burdens: his hands slaved in making the baskets. 1
7You did call upon me in trouble, and I delivered you; I heard you in the secret place of the storm: I proved you at the water of + 80:7 Lit. contradiction. Strife. Pause. 1
8Hear, my people, and I will speak to you, O Israel; and I will testify to you: if you will listen to me; 1
9there shall be no new god in you; neither shall you worship a strange god. 1
10For I am the Lord your God, that brought you out of the land of Egypt: open your mouth wide, and I will fill it. 1
11But my people listened not to my voice; and Israel gave no heed to me. 1
12So I let them go after the ways of their own hearts: they will go on in their own ways. 1
13If my people had listened to me, if Israel had walked in my ways, 1
14I should have put down their enemies very quickly, and should have laid my hand upon those that afflicted them. 1
15The Lord's enemies should have lied to him: but + 80:15 sc. of the others. their time shall be for ever. 1
16And he fed them with the fat of wheat; and satisfied them with honey out of the rock.
