1 For the Leader; upon the Gittith. A Psalm of Asaph. Sing aloud unto God our strength; shout unto the God of Jacob.

To the choirmaster - on the Gittith of Asaph. Sing for joy to God strength our shout for joy to [the] God of Jacob.

2 Take up the melody, and sound the timbrel, the sweet harp with the psaltery.

Lift up music and beat a tambourine a harp pleasant with a lyre.

3 Blow the horn at the new moon, at the full moon for our feast-day.

Blow at the new moon a ram's horn at the full moon to [the] day of festival our.

4 For it is a statute for Israel, an ordinance of the God of Jacob.

For [is] a decree for Israel it an ordinance of [the] God of Jacob.

5 He appointed it in Joseph for a testimony, when He went forth against the land of Egypt. The speech of one that I knew not did I hear:

A testimony - in Joseph he established it when went out he on [the] land of Egypt a language [which] not I knew I heard.

6 'I removed his shoulder from the burden; His hands were freed from the basket.

I removed from a burden shoulder his hands his from a basket they passed away.

7 Thou didst call in trouble, and I rescued thee; I answered thee in the secret place of thunder; I proved thee at the waters of Meribah. (Selah)

In trouble you called out and I rescued you I answered you in [the] hiding place of thunder I tested you at [the] waters of Meribah (Selah)

8 Hear, O My people, and I will admonish thee: O Israel, if thou wouldest hearken unto Me!

Listen O people my so let me warn you O Israel if you will listen to me.

9 There shall no strange god be in thee; neither shalt thou worship any foreign god.

Not it will be among you a god strange and not you must bow down to a god of foreignness.

10 I am the LORD thy God, who brought thee up out of the land of Egypt; open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.

I - [am] Yahweh God your who brought up you from [the] land of Egypt make large mouth your and I will fill it.

11 But My people hearkened not to My voice; and Israel would none of Me.

And not it listened people my to voice my and Israel not it yielded to me.

12 So I let them go after the stubbornness of their heart, that they might walk in their own counsels.

And I gave over it in [the] stubbornness of heart their they walked in own schemes their.

13 Oh that My people would hearken unto Me, that Israel would walk in My ways!

If people my [will be] listening to me Israel in ways my they will walk.

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

Like a little enemies their I will subdue and on opponents their I will turn hand my.

15 The haters of the LORD should dwindle away before Him; and their punishment should endure for ever.

[those who] hate Yahweh They will cringe to him and may it be time their for ever.

16 They should also be fed with the fat of wheat; and with honey out of the rock would I satisfy thee.'

And he fed him from [the] best of [the] wheat and from a rock honey I will satisfy you.
