Psalm 81:5-7

Easy-to-Read Version

⁵ God made this agreement with Joseph’s people,
    when he led them out of Egypt.
In a language we didn’t understand, God said,
⁶ “I took the load from your shoulder.
    I let you drop the worker’s basket.
⁷ When you were in trouble, you called for help, and I set you free.
    I was hidden in the storm clouds, and I answered you.
    I tested you by the water at Meribah.^[a]” Selah
