Psalms 81:11-17 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

11. “I am the Lord your God,who brought you up from the land of Egypt.Open wide your mouth that I may fill it.’

12. But my people did not listen to my words;Israel would not submit to me.

13. So I thrust them away to the hardness of their heart;‘Let them walk in their own machinations.’

14. O that my people would listen to me,that Israel would walk in my ways,

15. In a moment I would humble their foes,and turn back my hand against their oppressors.

16. Those who hate the Lord will try flattering him,but their fate is fixed forever.

17. But Israel I will feed with the finest wheat,I will satisfy them with honey from the rock.”
