Psalms 81:9-16 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

9. There must not be a strange god among you;you must not bow down to a foreign god.

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

11. “But My people did not listen to Me;Israel did not obey Me.

12. So I gave them over to their stubborn heartsto follow their own plans.

13. If only My people would listen to Meand Israel would follow My ways,

14. I would quickly subdue their enemiesand turn My hand against their foes.”

15. Those who hate the Lordwould pretend submission to Him; their doom would last forever.

16. But He would feed Israel with the best wheat.“I would satisfy you with honey from the rock.”
