2 Take a psalm and bring hither the timbrel the pleasant harp with the psaltery

3 Blow up the trumpet in the new moon in the time appointed on our solemn feast day

4 For this was a statute for Israel and a law of the God of Jacob

5 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

6 I removed his shoulder from the burden his hands were delivered from the pots

7 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

8 Hear O my people and I will testify unto thee O Israel if thou wilt hearken unto 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 So I gave them up unto their own hearts' lust and they walked in their own counsels

13 Oh that my people had hearkened unto me and Israel had walked in my ways

14 I should soon have subdued their enemies and turned my hand against their adversaries

15 The haters of the LORD should have submitted themselves unto him but their time should have endured for ever

16 He should have fed them also with the finest of the wheat and with honey out of the rock should I have satisfied thee
