- 0:03Speaker 1: Psalm eighty one, for the chief musician on an instrument
- 0:07Speaker 1: of goth by aesaph, sing aloud to God our strength,
- 0:12Speaker 1: make a joyful shout to the God of Jacob, raise
- 0:15Speaker 1: a song, and bring here the tambourine, the pleasant liar
- 0:19Speaker 1: with the harp, blow the trumpet at the new moon,
- 0:22Speaker 1: at the full moon on our feast day. For it
- 0:24Speaker 1: is a statute for Israel, an ordinance of the God
- 0:27Speaker 1: of Jacob. He appointed it in Joseph for a testimony.
- 0:31Speaker 1: When he went out over the land of Egypt. I
- 0:33Speaker 1: heard a language that I didn't know. I removed his
- 0:36Speaker 1: shoulder from the burden. His hands were freed from the basket.
- 0:40Speaker 1: You called in trouble, and I delivered you. I answered you.
- 0:43Speaker 1: In this secret place of thunder. I tested you at
- 0:46Speaker 1: the waters of Mehrabah. Here my people, and I will
- 0:49Speaker 1: testify to you, Israel, if you would listen to me,
- 0:53Speaker 1: there shall be no strange God in you. Neither shall
- 0:56Speaker 1: you worship any foreign god. I am Yahweh, your God
- 1:00Speaker 1: who brought you up out of the land of Egypt.
- 1:02Speaker 1: Open your mouth wide and I will fill it. But
- 1:05Speaker 1: my people didn't listen to my voice. Israel desired none
- 1:09Speaker 1: of me. So I let them go after the stubbornness
- 1:11Speaker 1: of their hearts, that they might walk in their own councils. Oh,
- 1:15Speaker 1: that my people would listen to me, that Israel would
- 1:18Speaker 1: walk in my ways. I would soon subdue their enemies
- 1:22Speaker 1: and turn my hand against their adversaries. The haters of
- 1:25Speaker 1: Yahweh would cringe before him, and their punishment would last forever.
- 1:30Speaker 1: But he would have also fed them with the finest
- 1:32Speaker 1: of wheat. I will satisfy you with honey out of
- 1:35Speaker 1: the rock.
