1 Shout for joy to God our defender;sing praise to the God of Jacob!
2 Start the music and beat the tambourines;play pleasant music on the harps and the lyres.
3 Blow the trumpet for the festival,when the moon is new and when the moon is full.
4 This is the law in Israel,an order from the God of Jacob.
5 He gave it to the people of Israelwhen he attacked the land of Egypt.I hear an unknown voice saying,
6 “I took the burdens off your backs;I let you put down your loads of bricks.
