{Psalms 81:4} For this [was] a statute for Israel, [and] a law of the God of Jacob. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 81:5} 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. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 81:6} I removed his shoulder from the burden: his hands were delivered from the pots. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 81:7} 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. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 81:8} Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee: O Israel, if thou wilt hearken unto me; ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 81:9} There shall no strange god be in thee; neither shalt thou worship any strange god. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 81:10} I [am] the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 81:11} But my people would not hearken to my voice; and Israel would none of me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 81:12} So I gave them up unto their own hearts’ lust: [and] they walked in their own counsels. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 81:13} Oh that my people had hearkened unto me, [and] Israel had walked in my ways! ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 81:14} I should soon have subdued their enemies, and turned my hand against their adversaries. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 81:15} The haters of the LORD should have submitted themselves unto him: but their time should have endured for ever. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 81:16} He should have fed them also with the finest of the wheat: and with honey out of the rock should I have satisfied thee.
