Salmos 81:11-16

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!

14 En una nada habría yo derribado sus enemigos, Y vuelto mi mano sobre sus adversarios.

15 Los aborrecedores de Jehová se le hubieran sometido; Y el tiempo de ellos fuera para siempre.

16 Y Dios lo hubiera mantenido de grosura de trigo: Y de miel de la piedra te hubiera saciado.

Salmos 81:11-16 Meaning and Commentary

To the chief Musician upon Gittith, A [Psalm] of Asaph. Of "gittith," See Gill on "Ps 8:1." The Targum renders it, "upon the harp which came from Gath;" and so Jarchi says it was a musical instrument that came from Gath. The Septuagint, and the versions which follow that, render it, "for the winepresses." This psalm, according to Kimchi, is said concerning the going out of the children of Israel from Egypt; and was composed in order to be sung at their new moons and solemn feasts, which were typical of Gospel things in Gospel times; see Colossians 2:16 and so the Syriac version, "a psalm of Asaph, when David by him prepared himself for the solemnities."
