New International Version

Psalm 81:5-9 New International Version (NIV)

5. When God went out against Egypt, he established it as a statute for Joseph. I heard an unknown voice say:

6. “I removed the burden from their shoulders; their hands were set free from the basket.

7. In your distress you called and I rescued you, I answered you out of a thundercloud; I tested you at the waters of Meribah.

8. Hear me, my people, and I will warn you— if you would only listen to me, Israel!

9. You shall have no foreign god among you; you shall not worship any god other than me.
