For the end, a Psalm for Asaph, concerning the wine-presses.

Rejoice ye in God our helper; shout aloud to the God of Jacob.

Take a psalm, and produce the timbrel, the pleasant psaltery with the harp.

Blow the trumpet at the new moon, in the glorious day of your feast.

For [this] is an ordinance for Israel, and a statute of the God of Jacob.

He made it [to be] a testimony in Joseph, when he came forth out of the land of Egypt: he heard a language which he understood not.

He removed his back from burdens: his hands slaved in making the baskets.

Thou didst call upon me in trouble, and I delivered thee; I heard thee in the secret place of the storm: I proved thee at the water of Strife. Pause.

Hear, my people, and I will speak to thee, O Israel; and I will testify to thee: if thou wilt hearken to me;

there shall be no new god in thee; neither shalt thou worship a strange god.

For I am the Lord thy God, that brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.

But my people hearkened not to my voice; and Israel gave no heed to me.

So I let them go after the ways of their own hearts: they will go on in their own ways.

If my people had hearkened to me, if Israel had walked in my ways,

I should have put down their enemies very quickly, and should have laid my hand upon those that afflicted them.

The Lord's enemies [should have] lied to him: but their time shall be for ever.

And he fed them with the fat of wheat; and satisfied them with honey out of the rock.
