Psalms 81

New American Bible	Peshitta ܦܫܝܼܛܬܵܐ
¹ For the leader; "upon the gittith." Of Asaph.
² Sing joyfully to God our strength; shout in triumph to the God of Jacob!	² ܫܒܚܘ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܡܥܫܢܢܢ ܘܩܥܘ ܠܐܠܗܗ ܕܝܥܩܘܒ
³ Take up a melody, sound the timbrel, the sweet-sounding harp and lyre.	³ ܫܩܘܠܘ ܦܠܓ̈ܐ ܘܟܢܪ̈ܐ ܘܒܣ̈ܝܡܐ ܥܡ ܩܝܬܪ̈ܐ
⁴ Blow the trumpet at the new moon, at the full moon, on our solemn feast.	⁴ ܩܪܘ ܒܩܪ̈ܢܬܐ ܒܪܝܫ ܝܪ̈ܚܐ ܘܒܟܣ̈ܐܐ ܒܝ̈ܘܡܬܐ ܕܥܕܥ̈ܐܕܐ
⁵ For this is a law in Israel, an edict of the God of Jacob,	⁵ ܡܛܠ ܕܢܡܘܣܐ ܗܘ ܠܐܝܣܪܝܠ ܘܕܝܢܐ ܠܐܠܗܗ ܕܝܥܩܘܒ
⁶ Who made it a decree for Joseph when he came out of the land of Egypt. II I hear a new oracle:	⁶ ܣܗܕܘܬܐ ܒܝܘܣܦ ܣܡܗ̇ ܟܕ ܢܦܩ ܠܐܪܥܐ ܕܡܨܪܝܢ ܠܫܢܐ ܕܠܐ ܝܕܥ ܗܘܐ ܫܡܥ
⁷ "I relieved their shoulders of the burden; their hands put down the basket.	⁷ ܐܥܒܪܬ ܢܝܪܐ ܡܢ ܟܬܦܗ ܘܐ̈ܝܕܘܗܝ ܡܢ ܐܣܘܪܝܐ ܫܪܝܬ
⁸ In distress you called and I rescued you; unseen, I spoke to you in thunder; At the waters of Meribah I tested you and said: Selah	⁸ ܒܐܘܠܨܢܐ ܩܪܢܝ ܘܦܨܝܬܗ ܘܟܣܝܬܗ ܒܣܬܪܐ ܕܝܠܝ ܡܫܒܚܐ ܘܒܚܪܬܗ ܒܡ̈ܝܐ ܕܚܪܝܢܐ
⁹ 'Listen, my people, I give you warning! If only you will obey me, Israel!	⁹ ܫܡܥ ܥܡܝ ܘܐܡܠܠ ܘܐܝܣܪܝܠ ܐܣܗܕ ܒܟ ܐܢ ܬܫܡܥܢܝ
¹⁰ There must be no foreign god among you; you must not worship an alien god.	¹⁰ ܠܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܠܟ ܐܠܗ ܢܘܟܪܝ ܘܠܐ ܬܣܓܘܕ ܠܕܚܠܐ ܐܚܪܢܝܐ
¹¹ I, the LORD, am your God, who brought you up from the land of Egypt. Open wide your mouth that I may fill it.'	¹¹ ܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܡܪܝܐ ܐܠܗܟ ܕܐܣܩܬܟ ܡܢ ܐܪܥܐ ܕܡܨܪܝܢ ܦܬܚ ܦܘܡܟ ܘܐܡܠܝܘܗܝ
¹² But my people did not listen to my words; Israel did not obey me.	¹² ܘܥܡܝ ܠܐ ܫܡܥ ܒܩܠܝ ܘܐܝܣܪܝܠ ܠܐ ܐܬܛܦܝܣܘ ܡܢܝ
¹³ So I gave them over to hardness of heart; they followed their own designs.	¹³ ܗܠܟܘ ܒܨܒܝܢܐ ܕܠܒܗܘܢ ܘܒܬܪܥܝܬܐ ܕܢܦܫܗܘܢ
¹⁴ But even now if my people would listen, if Israel would walk in my paths,	¹⁴ ܐܠܘ ܥܡܝ ܫܡܥܢܝ ܘܐܝܣܪܝܠ ܒܐܘܪ̈ܚܬܝ ܗܠܟ
¹⁵ In a moment I would subdue their foes, against their enemies unleash my hand.	¹⁵ ܥܕ ܩܠܝܠ ܡܘܒܕ ܗܘܝܬ ܠܒ̈ܥܠܕܒܒܝܗܘܢ ܘܥܠ ܣܢܐ̈ܝܗܘܢ ܡܗܦܟ ܗܘܝܬ ܐܝܕܝ
¹⁶ Those who hate the LORD would tremble, their doom sealed forever.	¹⁶ ܣܢܐ̈ܘܗܝ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܟܕܒܘ ܒܗ ܘܗܘܐ ܙܘܥܗܘܢ ܠܥܠܡ
¹⁷ But Israel I would feed with the finest wheat, satisfy them with honey from the rock."	¹⁷ ܐܘܟܠܗ ܡܢ ܫܘܡܢܐ ܕܚܛܬܐ ܘܡܢ ܟܐܦܐ ܕܒܫܐ ܣܒܥܗ
