Context of Psalms 81:10

8I said, “My people, listen to me! I warn you now. Listen carefully to me, Israel's people! 9There must not be any strange god among you. You must never worship a foreign god. I am the Lord, your God. I brought you out of the land of Egypt. Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it with many good things.” 11But my people refused to listen to me. My people, Israel, did not obey me. 12So I let them follow their own proud ideas. They could do whatever they wanted to do.
