Psalms 81:6-11

⁶(81-7) 'I removed his shoulder from the burden; His hands were freed from the basket.

⁷(81-8) Thou didst call in trouble, and I rescued thee; I answered thee in the secret place of thunder; I proved thee at the waters of Meribah. Selah

⁸(81-9) Hear, O My people, and I will admonish thee: O Israel, if thou wouldest hearken unto Me!

⁹(81-10) There shall no strange god be in thee; neither shalt thou worship any foreign god.

¹⁰(81-11) I am the LORD thy God, who brought thee up out of the land of Egypt; open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.

¹¹(81-12) But My people hearkened not to My voice; and Israel would none of Me.
