7. You called in trouble, and I delivered you; I answered you in the secret place of thunder: I tested you at the waters of Meribah. Selah.
8. Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto you: O Israel, if you will hearken unto me;
9. There shall no strange god be among you; neither shall you worship any foreign god.
10. I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt: open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.
11. But my people would not hearken to my voice; and Israel would have none of me.
12. So I gave them up unto their own hearts' lust: and they walked in their own counsels.
13. Oh that my people had hearkened unto me, and Israel had walked in my ways!
14. I should soon have subdued their enemies, and turned my hand against their adversaries.
15. The haters of the LORD should have submitted themselves unto him: and their fate should have endured forever.
16. He should have fed them also with the finest of the wheat: and with honey out of the rock should I have satisfied you.
