5For this is a rule for Israel, and a law of the God of Jacob.
6He gave it to Joseph as a witness, when he went out over the land of Egypt; then the words of a strange tongue were sounding in my ears.
7I took the weight from his back; his hands were made free from the baskets.
8You gave a cry in your trouble, and I made you free; I gave you an answer in the secret place of the thunder; I put you to the test at the waters of Meribah. (Selah.)
9Give ear, O my people, and I will give you my word, O Israel, if you will only do as I say!
10There is to be no strange god among you; you are not to give worship to any other god.
11I am the Lord your God, who took you up from the land of Egypt: let your mouth be open wide, so that I may give you food.
