Psalms 80:7-16

⁷He removed his back from burdens: His hands slaved in making the baskets.

⁸Thou didst call upon me in trouble, and I delivered thee; I heard thee in the secret place of the storm: I proved thee at the water of Strife. Pause.

⁹Hear, my people, and I will speak to thee, O Israel; And I will testify to thee: if thou wilt hearken to me;

¹⁰There shall be no new god in thee; Neither shalt thou worship a strange god.

¹¹For I am the Lord thy God, That brought thee out of the land of Egypt: Open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.

¹²But my people hearkened not to my voice; And Israel gave no heed to me.

¹³So I let them go after the ways of their own hearts: They will go on in their own ways.

¹⁴If my people had hearkened to me, If Israel had walked in my ways,

¹⁵I should have put down their enemies very quickly, And should have laid my hand upon those that afflicted them.

¹⁶The Lord’s enemies should have lied to him: But their time shall be forever.
