Psalms 81
1 Synge merely vnto God which is or stregth make a chearful noyse vnto ye God of Iacob.2 Take ye psalme, brynge hither the tabret, the mery harpe & lute.3 Blowe vp the tropettes in the new Moone, vpon or solepne feast daye.4 For this is the vse in Israel, & a lawe of the God of Iacob.5 This he ordened in Ioseph for a testimony, when he came out of Egipte, & had herde a strauge laguage.6 When he eased his shulder from the burthe, & when his hondes were delyuered fro the pottes.7 Whe thou calldest vpon me in trouble, I helped the & herde the, what tyme as the storme fell vpo the,
8 I proued the also at the water of strife.9 Sela. Heare o my people, for I assure the o Israel, yf thou wilt herken vnto me:10 There shal no straunge God be in the, nether shalt thou worshipe eny other God.11 I am the LORDE thy God, which brought the out of the lode of Egipte: ope thy mouth wyde, & I shal fyll it.12 But my people wolde not heare my voyce, & Israel wolde not obeye me.13 So I gaue the vp vnto their owne hertes lust, & let the folowe their owne ymaginacions.14 Oy my people wolde obeye me, for yf Israel wolde walke in my wayes.15 I shulde soone put downe their enemies, & turne myne hode agaynst their aduersaries.16 The haters of ye LORDE shulde mysse Israel, but their tyme shulde endure for euer. He shulde fede them with the fynest wheate floure, & satisfie them with hony out of the stony rocke.
