Psalms 81:12

Compare all

10 ^aI am the Lord your God,
Who brought you out of the land of Egypt;
^bOpen your mouth wide, and I will fill it.

11 “But My people would not heed My voice,
And Israel would have ^anone of Me.

12 ^aSo I gave them over to¹ their own stubborn heart,
To walk in their own counsels.

13 “Oh,^a that My people would listen to Me,
That Israel would walk in My ways!

14 I would soon subdue their enemies,
And turn My hand against their adversaries.

15 ^aThe haters of the Lord would pretend submission to Him,
But their¹ fate would endure forever.

16 He would ^ahave fed them also with the finest of wheat;
And with honey ^bfrom the rock I would have satisfied you.”

Psalm 81:12-14

They did the same thing. "I gave them over to their own stubborn heart." This is directed at all of Israel, including the Jews. When God is left out of the picture, people are going to go downhill.
