Psalm of the Day Bread of Life Psalm 81:1-10
Psalm 81:1–10
1Sing aloud to | God our strength;*
shout for joy to the God of | Jacob!
2Raise a song; sound the | tambourine,*
the sweet lyre | with the harp.
3Blow the trumpet at the | new moon,*
at the full moon, on our | feast day.
4For it is a statute for | Israel,*
a just decree of the God of | Jacob.
5He made it a decree in Joseph
when he went out over the land of | Egypt.*
I hear a language I | had not known:
6"I relieved your shoulder of the | burden;*
your hands were freed from the | basket.
7In distress you called, and I de- | livered you;*
I answered you in the secret place of thunder;
I tested you at the waters of | Meribah.
8Hear, O my people, while I ad- | monish you!*
O Israel, if you would but lis- | ten to me!
9There shall be no strange god a- | mong you;*
you shall not bow down to a | foreign god.
10I am the Lord your God,
who brought you up out of the land of | Egypt.*
Open your mouth wide, and I will | fill it.
