Texts -- Psalms 81:10-16 (NET)

Context
81:10 I am the Lord , your God , the one who brought you out of the land of Egypt . Open your mouth wide and I will fill it!’ 81:11 But my people did not obey me ; Israel did not submit to me. 81:12 I gave them over to their stubborn desires ; they did what seemed right to them. 81:13 If only my people would obey me! If only Israel would keep my commands ! 81:14 Then I would quickly subdue their enemies , and attack their adversaries .” 81:15 (May those who hate the Lord cower in fear before him! May they be permanently humiliated!) 81:16 “I would feed Israel the best wheat , and would satisfy your appetite with honey from the rocky cliffs.”
