Sing for joy to God

1
For the chief musician; set to the Gittith style. A psalm of Asaph. Sing aloud to God our strength; shout out for joy to the God of Jacob.
2
Sing a song and play the tambourine, the pleasant lyre with the harp.
3
Blow the trumpet on the day of the new moon, on the day of the full moon, when our feast day begins.
4
For it is a statute for Israel, a decree given by the God of Jacob.
5
He issued it as a regulation in Joseph when he went against the land of Egypt, where I heard a voice that I did not recognize:
6
“I removed the burden from his shoulder; his hands were freed from holding the basket.
7
In your distress you called out, and I helped you; I answered you from a dark thundercloud. I tested you at the waters of Meribah. Selah.
8
Listen, my people, for I will warn you, Israel, if you would only listen to me!
9
There must be no foreign god among you; you must not worship any foreign god.
10
I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt. Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.
11
But my people did not listen to my words; Israel did not obey me.
12
So I gave them over to their own stubborn way so that they might do what seemed right to them.
13
Oh, that my people would listen to me; oh, that my people would walk in my paths.
14
Then I would quickly subdue their enemies and turn my hand against their oppressors.
15
May those who hate Yahweh cringe in fear before him! May they be humiliated forever.
16
I would feed Israel with the finest wheat; I would satisfy you with honey out of the rock.”

Sing for joy to God

1
Sing aloud to God, our strength! Make a joyful shout to the God of Jacob!
2
Raise a song, and bring here the tambourine, the pleasant 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 appointed it in Joseph for a covenant, when he went out over the land of Egypt, I heard a language that I didn’t know.
6
I removed his shoulder from the burden. His hands were freed from the basket.
7
You called in trouble, and I delivered you. I answered you in the secret place of thunder. I tested you at the waters of Meribah.” Selah.
8
Hear, my people, and I will testify to you, Israel, if you would listen to me!
9
There shall be no strange god in you, neither shall you worship any foreign god.
10
I am the LORD, your God, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt. Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.
11
But my people didn’t listen to my voice. Israel desired none of me.
12
So I let them go after the stubbornness of their hearts, that they might walk in their own counsels.
13
Oh that my people would listen to me, that Israel would walk in my ways!
14
I would soon subdue their enemies, and turn my hand against their adversaries.
15
The haters of the LORD would cringe before him, and their punishment would last forever.
16
But he would have also fed them with the finest of the wheat. I will satisfy you with honey out of the rock.”
