Psalm 81:6-8

Good News Translation

⁶ “I took the burdens off your backs;
    I let you put down your loads of bricks.
^7 (A)When you were in trouble, you called to me, and I saved you.
    From my hiding place in the storm, I answered you.
    I put you to the test at the springs of Meribah.
⁸ Listen, my people, to my warning;
    Israel, how I wish you would listen to me!
