1(81) For the end, a Psalm for Asaph, concerning the wine presses. Rejoice you⌃ in God our helper; shout aloud to the God of Jacob.
1Sing aloud unto God our strength: make a joyful noise unto the God of Jacob.
2Take a psalm, and produce the timbrel, the pleasant lute with the harp.
2Take a psalm, and bring hither the timbrel, the pleasant harp with the psaltery.
3Blow the trumpet at the new moon, in the glorious day of your feast .

4For [this] is an ordinance for Israel, and a statute of the God of Jacob.
4For this was a statute for Israel, and a law of the God of Jacob.
5He made 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.
5This 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.
6He removed his back from burdens: his hands slaved in making the baskets.
6I removed his shoulder from the burden: his hands were delivered from the pots.
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 Strife. Pause.
7Thou 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.
8Hear, my people, and I will speak to you, O Israel; and I will testify to you: if you will listen to me;
8Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee: O Israel, if thou wilt hearken unto me;
9there shall be no new god in you; neither shall you worship a strange god.
9There shall no strange god be in thee; neither shalt thou worship any strange god.
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.
10I am the Lord thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.
11But my people listened not to my voice; and Israel gave no heed to me.
11But my people would not hearken to my voice; and Israel would none of me.
12So I let them go after the ways of their own hearts: they will go on in their own ways.
12So I gave them up unto their own hearts’ lust: and they walked in their own counsels.
13If my people had listened to me, if Israel had walked in my ways,
13Oh that my people had hearkened unto me, and Israel had walked in my ways!
14I should have put down their enemies very quickly, and should have laid my hand upon those that afflicted them.
14I should soon have subdued their enemies, and turned my hand against their adversaries.
15The Lord 's enemies [should have] lied to him: but their time shall be for ever.
15The haters of the Lord should have submitted themselves unto him: but their time should have endured for ever.
16And he fed them with the fat of wheat; and satisfied them with honey out of the rock .
16He should have fed them also with the finest of the wheat: and with honey out of the rock should I have satisfied thee.
