< Psalms 95 >
1 Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD; let us shout to the Rock of our salvation!
The Praise of a Canticle, of David himself. Come, let us exult in the Lord. Let us shout joyfully to God, our Savior.
2 Let us enter His presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to Him in song.
Let us anticipate his presence with confession, and let us sing joyfully to him with psalms.
3 For the LORD is a great God, a great King above all gods.
For the Lord is a great God and a great King over all gods.
4 In His hand are the depths of the earth, and the mountain peaks belong to Him.
For in his hand are all the limits of the earth, and the heights of the mountains are his.
5 The sea is His, for He made it, and His hands formed the dry land.
For the sea is his, and he made it, and his hands formed the dry land.
6 O come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the LORD our Maker.
Come, let us adore and fall prostrate, and let us weep before the Lord who made us.
7 For He is our God, and we are the people of His pasture, the sheep under His care. Today, if you hear His voice,
For he is the Lord our God, and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand.
8 do not harden your hearts as you did at Meribah, in the day at Massah in the wilderness,
If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts:
9 where your fathers tested and tried Me, though they had seen My work.
as in the provocation, according to the day of temptation in the wilderness, where your fathers tempted me; they tested me, though they had seen my works.
10 For forty years I was angry with that generation, and I said, “They are a people whose hearts go astray, and they have not known My ways.”
For forty years, I was offended by that generation, and I said: These have always strayed in heart.
11 So I swore on oath in My anger, “They shall never enter My rest.”
And these have not known my ways. So I swore in my wrath: They shall not enter into my rest.
