6 “I removed the burden from his shoulder.His hands were freed from the basket.
7 When you were in trouble, you called out ⌊to me⌋, and I rescued you.I was hidden in thunder, but I answered you.I tested your ⌊loyalty⌋ at the oasis of Meribah. Selah
8 Listen, my people, and I will warn you.Israel, if you would only listen to me!
9 Never keep any strange god among you.Never worship a foreign god.
10 I am the Lord your God, the one who brought you out of Egypt.Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.
11 “But my people did not listen to me.Israel wanted nothing to do with me.
12 So I let them go their own stubborn waysand follow their own advice.
