“I took the load off their shoulders;
    I let them put down their baskets.
When you were in trouble, you called, and I saved you.
    I answered you with thunder.
    I tested you at the waters of Meribah. Selah
My people, listen. I am warning you.
    Israel, please listen to me!

Hear me, my people,(F) and I will warn you—
    if you would only listen to me, Israel!
