Psalms 81:2

An Appeal for Israel’s Repentance

To the Chief Musician. On an instrument of Gath. A Psalm of Asaph.

1 Sing aloud to God our strength;
Make a joyful shout to the God of Jacob.

2 Raise a song and strike the timbrel,
The pleasant harp with the lute.

3 Blow the trumpet at the time of the New Moon,
At the full moon, on our solemn feast day.

4 For ^athis is a statute for Israel,
A law of the God of Jacob.

5 This He established in Joseph as a testimony,
When He went throughout the land of Egypt,
^aWhere I heard a language I did not understand.

6 “I removed his shoulder from the burden;
His hands were freed from the baskets.
