Psalms 81:2-9
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 81
2
Raise a song, strike the tambourine,
The sweet sounding lyre with the harp.
3
Blow the trumpet at the new moon,
At the full moon, on our feast day.
4
For it is a statute for Israel,
An ordinance of the God of Jacob.
5
He established it as a testimony in Joseph
When he went throughout the land of Egypt.
I heard a language I did not know:
6
'I relieved his shoulder of the burden,
His hands were freed from the basket.
7
You called in trouble and I rescued you;
I answered you in the hiding place of thunder;
I put you to the test at the waters of Meribah.
Selah
8
Hear, My people, and I will admonish you;
Israel, if you would listen to Me!
9
There shall be no strange god among you;
Nor shall you worship a foreign god.
King James Version
Chapter 81
2
Take a psalm, and bring hither the timbrel, the pleasant harp with the psaltery.
3
Blow up the trumpet in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our solemn feast day.
4
For this was a statute for Israel, and a law of the God of Jacob.
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.
6
I removed his shoulder from the burden: his hands were delivered from the pots.
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.
8
Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee: O Israel, if thou wilt hearken unto me;
9
There shall no strange god be in thee; neither shalt thou worship any strange god.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 81
2
Lift up a song—play the tambourine,
the melodious lyre, and the harp.
3
Blow the horn on the day of our feasts
during the new moon
and during the full moon.
4
For this is a statute for Israel,
an ordinance of the God of Jacob.
5
He set it up as a decree for Joseph
when he went throughout the land of Egypt.
I heard an unfamiliar language:
6
"I relieved his shoulder from the burden;
his hands were freed from carrying the basket.
7
You called out in distress, and I rescued you;
I answered you from the thundercloud.
I tested you at the Waters of Meribah.
Selah
8
Listen, my people, and I will admonish you.
Israel, if you would only listen to me!
9
There must not be a strange god among you;
you must not bow down to a foreign god.
New Living Translation
Chapter 81
2
Sing! Beat the tambourine.
Play the sweet lyre and the harp.
3
Blow the ram’s horn at new moon,
and again at full moon to call a festival!
4
For this is required by the decrees of Israel;
it is a regulation of the God of Jacob.
5
He made it a law for Israel
when he attacked Egypt to set us free.
I heard an unknown voice say,
6
'Now I will take the load from your shoulders;
I will free your hands from their heavy tasks.
7
You cried to me in trouble, and I saved you;
I answered out of the thundercloud
and tested your faith when there was no water at Meribah.
Interlude
8
'Listen to me, O my people, while I give you stern warnings.
O Israel, if you would only listen to me!
9
You must never have a foreign god;
you must not bow down before a false god.
English Standard Version
Chapter 81
2
Raise a song; sound the tambourine,
the sweet lyre with the harp.
3
Blow the trumpet at the new moon,
at the full moon, on our feast day.
4
For it is a statute for Israel,
a rule of the God of Jacob.
5
He made it a decree in Joseph
when he went out over the land of Egypt.
I hear a language I had not known:
6
"I relieved your shoulder of the burden;
your hands were freed from the basket.
7
In distress you called, and I delivered you;
I answered you in the secret place of thunder;
I tested you at the waters of Meribah.
Selah
8
Hear, O my people, while I admonish you!
O Israel, if you would but listen to me!
9
There shall be no strange god among you;
you shall not bow down to a foreign god.
New International Version
Chapter 81
2
Begin the music, strike the timbrel,
play the melodious harp and lyre.
3
Sound the ram’s horn at the New Moon,
and when the moon is full, on the day of our festival;
4
this is a decree for Israel,
an ordinance of the God of Jacob.
5
When God went out against Egypt,
he established it as a statute for Joseph. I heard an unknown voice say:
6
"I removed the burden from their shoulders;
their hands were set free from the basket.
7
In your distress you called and I rescued you,
I answered you out of a thundercloud;
I tested you at the waters of Meribah.
8
Hear me, my people, and I will warn you—
if you would only listen to me, Israel!
9
You shall have no foreign god among you;
you shall not worship any god other than me.
