Psalm 81 ~ Names of God Bible (NOG)

Psalm 81

For the choir director; on the gittith;[a] by Asaph.

1 Sing joyfully to Elohim, our strength.
    Shout happily to the Elohim of Jacob.
2 Begin a psalm, and strike a tambourine.
    Play lyres and harps with their pleasant music.
3 Blow the ram’s horn on the day of the new moon,
    on the day of the full moon,
    on our festival days.
4 This is a law for Israel,
    a legal decision from the Elohim of Jacob.
5         These are the instructions Elohim set in place for Joseph
            when Joseph rose to power over Egypt.

I heard a message I did not understand:
6 “I removed the burden from his shoulder.
    His hands were freed from the basket.
7 When you were in trouble, you called out to me, and I rescued you.
    I was hidden in thunder, but I answered you.
    I tested your loyalty at the oasis of Meribah. Selah
8         Listen, my people, and I will warn you.
            Israel, if you would only listen to me!
9         Never keep any strange god among you.
        Never worship a foreign god.
10 I am Yahweh your Elohim, the one who brought you out of Egypt.
    Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.

11 “But my people did not listen to me.
    Israel wanted nothing to do with me.
12 So I let them go their own stubborn ways
    and follow their own advice.
13 If only my people would listen to me!
    If only Israel would follow me!
14 I would quickly defeat their enemies.
    I would turn my power against their foes.
15 Those who hate Yahweh would cringe in front of him,
    and their time for punishment would last forever.
16 But I would feed Israel with the finest wheat
    and satisfy them with honey from a rock.”
