< Psalms 95 >

1 The praise of a Song by David. Come, let us exult in the Lord; let us make a joyful noise to God our Saviour.
O come, let us sing to the LORD; Let us raise a voice of joy to the rock of our salvation!
2 Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise to him with psalms.
Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving, And sing joyfully to him with psalms!
3 For the Lord is a great God, and a great king over all gods: for the Lord will not cast off his people.
For Jehovah is a great God; Yea, a great king over all gods.
4 For the ends of the earth are in his hands; and the heights of the mountains are his.
In his hands are the depths of the earth; His also are the heights of the mountains.
5 For the sea is his, and he made it: and is hands formed the dry land.
The sea is his, and he made it; The dry land also his hands formed.
6 Come, let us worship and fall down before him; and weep before the Lord that made us.
O come, let us worship and bow down! Let us kneel before the LORD, our maker!
7 For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand.
For he is our God, And we are the people of his pasture and the flock of his hand. O that ye would now hear his voice!
8 To-day, if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, according to the day of irritation in the wilderness:
“Harden not your hearts as at Meribah [[the strife]], As in the day of temptation [[Massah]] in the wilderness,
9 where your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works.
Where your fathers tempted me And tried me, although they had seen my works.
10 Forty years was I grieved with this generation, and said, They do always err in their heart, and they have not known my ways.
Forty years was I offended with that generation: And I said, 'They are a people of a perverse heart, And who have no regard to my ways.'
11 So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.
Therefore I sware, in my wrath, That they should not enter into my rest.”
