1. For the end, A Psalm for Asaph, concerning the winepresses. Rejoice in God our helper; shout aloud to the God of Jacob.

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

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

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

5. 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.

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

7. You called upon Me in trouble, and I delivered you; I heard you in the secret place of the storm; I proved you at the Water of Strife. Pause.

8. Hear, My people, and I will speak to you, O Israel; and I will testify to you; if you will hearken to Me;

9. there shall be no new god in you; neither shall you worship a strange god.

10. For I am the Lord your God, that brought you out of the land of Egypt; open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.

11. But My people hearkened not to My voice; and Israel gave no heed to Me.

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

13. If My people had hearkened to Me, if Israel had walked in My ways,

14. I would have put down their enemies very quickly, and would have laid My hand upon those that afflicted them.

15. The Lord's enemies [would have] lied to Him; but their time shall be forever.

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