Psalms 81

Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible RHE

1 (80-1) <Unto the end, for the winepresses, a psalm for Asaph himself.> (80-2) Rejoice to God our helper: sing aloud to the God of Jacob.

2 (80-3) Take a psalm, and bring hither the timbrel: the pleasant psaltery with the harp.

3 (80-4) Blow up the trumpet on the new moon, on the noted day of your solemnity.

4 (80-5) For it is a commandment in Israel, and a judgment to the God of Jacob.

5 (80-6) He ordained it for a testimony in Joseph, when he came out of the land of Egypt: he heard a tongue which he knew not.

6 (80-7) He removed his back from the burdens: his hands had served in baskets.

7 (80-8) Thou calledst upon me in affliction, and I delivered thee: I heard thee in the secret place of tempest: I proved thee at the waters of contradiction.

8 (80-9) Hear, O my people, and I will testify to thee: O Israel, if thou wilt hearken to me,

9 (80-10) there shall be no new god in thee: neither shalt thou adore a strange god.

10 (80-11) For I am the Lord thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.

11 (80-12) But my people heard not my voice: and Israel hearkened not to me.

12 (80-13) So I let them go according to the desires of their heart: they shall walk in their own inventions.

13 (80-14) If my people had heard me: if Israel had walked in my ways:

14 (80-15) I should soon have humbled their enemies, and laid my hand on them that troubled them.

15 (80-16) The enemies of the Lord have lied to him: and their time shall be for ever.

16 (80-17) And he fed them with the fat of wheat, and filled them with honey out of the rock.

New International Version NIV

1 Sing for joy to God our strength; shout aloud to the God of Jacob!

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.

10 I am the LORD your God, who brought you up out of Egypt. Open wide your mouth and I will fill it.

11 “But my people would not listen to me; Israel would not submit to me.

12 So I gave them over to their stubborn hearts to follow their own devices.

13 “If my people would only listen to me, if Israel would only follow my ways,

14 how quickly I would subdue their enemies and turn my hand against their foes!

15 Those who hate the LORD would cringe before him, and their punishment would last forever.

16 But you would be fed with the finest of wheat; with honey from the rock I would satisfy you.”
