< 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 make songs to the Lord; sending up glad voices 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 before his face with praises; and make melody with holy songs.
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 the Lord is a great God, and 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.
The deep places of the earth are in his hand; and the tops of the mountains are his.
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; and the dry land was formed by his hands.
6 Come, let us worship and fall down before him; and weep before the Lord that made us.
O come, let us give worship, falling down on our knees 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 to whom he gives food, and the sheep of his flock. Today, if you would only give ear to his voice!
8 To-day, if you will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, according to the day of irritation in the wilderness:
Let not your hearts be hard, as at Meribah, as in the day of Massah in the waste land;
9 where your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works.
When your fathers put me to the test and saw my power and my work.
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.
For forty years I was angry with this generation, and said, They are a people whose hearts are turned away from me, for they have no knowledge of my ways;
11 So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.
And I made an oath in my wrath, that they might not come into my place of rest.
