For charge to Isr’el,
and a law of Jacob’s God was this.

He travell’d through, where speech I heard
I did not understand.

his hands from pots did free.
Thou didst in trouble on me call,
and I deliver’d thee:

And at the streams of Meribah
of thee a proof did take.

I’ll testify to thee;
To thee, O Isr’el, if thou wilt
but hearken unto me.

any strange god at all;
Nor unto any god unknown
thou bowing down shalt fall.

from Egypt land thee guide;

would not attentive be;
And ev’n my chosen Israel
he would have none of me.

And then in counsels of their own
they vainly wandered.

Isr’el my ways had chose!
I had their en’mies soon subdu’d,
my hand turn’d on their foes.
Vers 12
submission should have feign’d;
But as for them, their time should have
for evermore remain’d.

the finest of the wheat;
Of honey from the rock thy fill
I should have made thee eat.
