Psalms 81:13 Context
11But my people would not hearken to my voice: and Israel would none of me. 12So I gaue them vp vnto their owne hearts lust: and they walked in in their owne counsels. 13O that my people had hearkned vnto me: and Israel had walked in my wayes! 14I should soone haue subdued their enemies, and turned my hand against their aduersaries. 15The haters of the Lord should haue submitted themselues vnto him: but their time should haue endured for euer.
