Salmos 81:11

11 Mas mi pueblo no oyó mi voz, E Israel no me quiso á mí.

Salmos 81:11 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 81:11

But my people would not hearken to my voice
Neither as exhorting them to the above duties, nor as promising the above favours; would neither hearken to the voice of the law, nor to the voice of the Gospel; but were like the deaf adder, which stops its ear to the voice of the charmer, charming never so wisely:

and Israel would none of me;
would not attend to his word, acquiesce in his will, nor delight themselves in him, and in his worship and service; would have none of his salutary doctrines, or wholesome reproofs, nor of his laws and government; would not have him to reign over them, nor to be their Saviour, though the only one, and there is none beside him; though the chiefest good, and from whom all good things come, and is the portion and exceeding great reward of his people: see ( Proverbs 1:25 Proverbs 1:30 ) .

Salmos 81:11 In-Context

9 No habrá en ti dios ajeno, Ni te encorvarás á dios extraño.
10 Yo soy Jehová tu Dios, Que te hice subir de la tierra de Egipto: Ensancha tu boca, y henchirla he.
11 Mas mi pueblo no oyó mi voz, E Israel no me quiso á mí.
12 Dejélos por tanto á la dureza de su corazón: Caminaron en sus consejos.
13 ¡Oh, si me hubiera oído mi pueblo, Si en mis caminos hubiera Israel andado!
