Psalms 81:10
8 Hear, O My people, and I will warn you: O Israel, if only you would listen to Me!
9 There must be no strange god among you, nor shall you bow to a foreign god.
I am the LORD your God, who brought you up out of Egypt. Open wide your mouth, and I will fill it.
11 But My people would not listen to Me, and Israel would not obey Me.
12 So I gave them up to their stubborn hearts to follow their own devices.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
