< Psalms 95 >
1 Come, let us make a joyful noise to Yahweh, Let us shout in triumph, to the rock of our salvation!
Oh come, let’s sing to the LORD. Let’s shout aloud to the rock of our salvation!
2 O let us come before his face with thanksgiving, With the sounds of strings, let us shout aloud to him.
Let’s come before his presence with thanksgiving. Let’s extol him with songs!
3 For, a great GOD, is Yahweh, And a great king, above all gods.
For the LORD is a great God, a great King above all gods.
4 In whose hand, are the hidden recesses of the earth, And, the peaks of the mountains, are his;
In his hand are the deep places of the earth. The heights of the mountains are also his.
5 Whose, is the sea, for, he, made it, And, the dry land, his hands, did form.
The sea is his, and he made it. His hands formed the dry land.
6 Enter! let us bow down, and bend low, Let us kneel, before Yahweh our maker;
Oh come, let’s worship and bow down. Let’s kneel before the LORD, our Maker,
7 For, he, is our God, And, we, are the people of his pasture, and the flock of his hand? To-day, if, to his voice, ye will hearken,
for he is our God. We are the people of his pasture, and the sheep in his care. Today, oh that you would hear his voice!
8 Do not harden your heart as at Meribah, As on the day of Massah, in the desert;
Don’t harden your heart, as at Meribah, as in the day of Massah in the wilderness,
9 When your fathers, tested me, They proved me, yea they also saw what I could do.
when your fathers tempted me, tested me, and saw my work.
10 Forty years, loathed I that generation, So I said—A people going astray in heart, they are, Even they, have not known my ways!
Forty long years I was grieved with that generation, and said, “They are a people who err in their heart. They have not known my ways.”
11 And I sware in mine anger, —Verily they shall not enter into my rest.
Therefore I swore in my wrath, “They won’t enter into my rest.”
