5 He made it a statute in Joseph when he went out against the land of Egypt, [where] I heard a language I did not know.

5 When God went out against Egypt, he established it as a statute for Joseph. I heard an unknown voice say:

10 I [am] Yahweh your God, who brought you up from the land of Egypt. Open wide your mouth and I will fill it.

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

13 Oh that my people would listen to me; [that] Israel would walk in my ways.

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

14 I would subdue their enemies quickly, and turn my hand against their adversaries.

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

15 Those who hate Yahweh would cringe before him, and their fate would be forever.

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

16 But he would feed him from [the] choicest wheat, and I would satisfy you with honey from a rock."

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