< Psalms 95 >
1 Come let us praise the Lord with joy: let us joyfully sing to God our saviour.
Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD; let us shout 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 enter His presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to Him in song.
3 For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods.
For the LORD is a great God, a great King above all gods.
4 For in his hand are all the ends of the earth: and the heights of the mountains are his.
In His hand are the depths of the earth, and the mountain peaks belong to Him.
5 For the sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.
The sea is His, for He made it, and His hands formed the dry land.
6 Come let us adore and fall down: 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 the Lord 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, the sheep under His care. Today, if you hear His voice,
8 Today if you shall hear his voice, harden not your hearts:
do not harden your hearts as you did at Meribah, in the day at Massah in the wilderness,
9 As in the provocation, according to the day of temptation in the wilderness: where your fathers tempted me, they proved me, and saw my works.
where your fathers tested and tried Me, though they had seen My work.
10 Forty years long was I offended with that generation, and I said: These always err in heart.
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.”
11 And these men have not known my ways: so I swore in my wrath that they shall not enter into my rest.
So I swore on oath in My anger, “They shall never enter My rest.”
