8 Listen, My people, and I will admonish you.Israel, if you would only listen to Me!
9 There must not be a strange god among you;you must not bow down to a foreign god.
10 I am Yahweh your God,who brought you up from the land of Egypt. Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.
11 “But My people did not listen to Me;Israel did not obey Me.
12 So I gave them over to their stubborn heartsto follow their own plans.
13 If only My people would listen to Meand Israel would follow My ways,
14 I would quickly subdue their enemiesand turn My hand against their foes.”
