Psalms 81:6-11
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 81
6'I relieved his shoulder of the burden, His hands were freed from the basket. 7You 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 8Hear, My people, and I will admonish you; Israel, if you would listen to Me! 9There shall be no strange god among you; Nor shall you worship a foreign god. 10I, the Lord, am your God, Who brought you up from the land of Egypt; Open your mouth wide and I will fill it. 11'But My people did not listen to My voice, And Israel did not obey Me.King James Version
