when he went out against Egypt,
where we heard a language we did not understand.Or / and we heard a voice we had not known

their hands were set free from the basket.

I answered you out of a thundercloud;
I tested you at the waters of Meribah.
Selah

8“Hear, O my people, and I will warn you—
if you would but listen to me, O Israel!

9You shall have no foreign god among you;
you shall not bow down to an alien god.

10I am the LORD your God,
who brought you up out of Egypt.
Open wide your mouth and I will fill it.

11“But my people would not listen to me;
Israel would not submit to me.

12So I gave them over to their stubborn hearts
to follow their own devices.

13“If my people would but listen to me,
if Israel would follow my ways,

14how quickly would I subdue their enemies
and turn my hand against their foes!

15Those who hate the LORD would cringe before him,
and their punishment would last forever.

16But you would be fed with the finest of wheat;
with honey from the rock I would satisfy you.”
