Psalm 81:2-4
Contemporary English Version

2 Sing as you play tambourines
and the lovely sounding
    stringed instruments.
3 (A) Sound the trumpets and start
    the New Moon Festival.[a]
We must also celebrate
    when the moon is full.
4 This is the law in Israel,
and it was given to us
    by the God of Jacob.

Footnotes
