< Psalms 95 >

1 Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD; let us shout to the Rock of our salvation!
Come, let's sing for joy to the Lord! Let's shout in triumph to the rock of our salvation!
2 Let us enter His presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to Him in song.
Let's go before him with thanksgiving! Let's sing loudly to him in celebration!
3 For the LORD is a great God, a great King above all gods.
For the Lord is a great God, a great king above all gods.
4 In His hand are the depths of the earth, and the mountain peaks belong to Him.
He rules over the depths of the earth and the heights of the mountains.
5 The sea is His, for He made it, and His hands formed the dry land.
The sea is his, because he made it; the dry land, because he formed it.
6 O come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the LORD our Maker.
Come, let's enter in and worship, let's kneel before the Lord our Creator.
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 our God, and we are the people he looks after like a shepherd, the flock he cares for. If you hear his voice calling you today,
8 do not harden your hearts as you did at Meribah, in the day at Massah in the wilderness,
don't have a hard-hearted attitude, “as you did at Meribah, as you did that day at Massah in the desert,
9 where your fathers tested and tried Me, though they had seen My work.
when your forefathers provoked me, testing my patience, even though they had seen everything I'd done.
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 disgusted with that generation, and I said, ‘They are people who are unfaithful to me in their minds, and they refuse to accept my ways.’
11 So I swore on oath in My anger, “They shall never enter My rest.”
So in my frustration I vowed, ‘They will certainly not enter my rest.’”
