Psalm 81:5-7

EasyEnglish Bible

⁵ When God punished the land of Egypt,
    he gave this rule to Joseph's family.
I heard a voice that I did not know.
⁶ It said: ‘I took the heavy load off your back.
    You no longer had to carry those heavy baskets.
⁷ When you had trouble, you called to me for help
    and I made you safe.
I answered your prayers
    from the middle of the dark storm.
I tested you at Meribah,
    when you had no water in the wilderness.
Selah.
