Make a joyful noise unto the God of Jacob.

An ordinance of the God of Jacob.

Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee:
O Israel, if thou wouldest hearken unto me!
There shall no strange god be in thee;
Neither shalt thou worship any foreign god.
I am Jehovah thy God,
Who brought thee up out of the land of Egypt:
Open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.
But my people hearkened not to my voice;
And Israel would none of me.
So I let them go after the stubbornness of their heart,
That they might walk in their own counsels.
Oh that my people would hearken unto me,
That Israel would walk in my ways!
I would soon subdue their enemies,
And turn my hand against their adversaries.
The haters of Jehovah should {Or, yield feigned obedience Hebrew: lie.}submit themselves unto him:
But their time should endure for ever.
He would feed them also with the {Hebrew: fat of wheat.}finest of the wheat;
And with honey out of the rock would I satisfy thee.
