Psalms 81:5-10
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 81
5He 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. 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.King James Version
Chapter 81
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. 6I removed his shoulder from the burden: his hands were delivered from the pots. 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.Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 81
5He 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.New Living Translation
Chapter 81
5He 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.
8'Listen to me, O my people, while I give you stern warnings. O Israel, if you would only listen to me!
9You must never have a foreign god; you must not bow down before a false god.
10For it was I, the Lord your God, who rescued you from the land of Egypt. Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it with good things.

5He 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. 7In 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 8Hear, O my people, while I admonish you! O Israel, if you would but listen to me! 9There shall be no strange god among you; you shall not bow down to a foreign god. 10I am the LORD your God, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt. Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.New International Version
