Psalms 95

1 Oh come, let us sing to Yahweh; let us sing joyfully to the rock of our salvation.

The praise of a Song by David. Come, let us exult in the Lord; let us make a joyful noise to God our Saviour.

2 Let us enter his presence with thanksgiving; let us sing to him with psalms of praise.

Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise to him with psalms.

3 For Yahweh is a great God and a great King superior to all gods.

For the Lord is a great God, and a great king over all gods: for the Lord will not cast off his people.

4 In his hand are the depths of the earth; the heights of the mountains are his.

For the ends of the earth are in his hands; and the heights of the mountains are his.

5 The sea is his, for he made it, and his hands formed the dry land.

For the sea is his, and he made it: and is hands formed the dry land.

6 Oh come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before Yahweh, our Creator:

Come, let us worship and fall down before him; and weep before the Lord that made us.

7 For he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand. Today—oh, that you would hear his voice!

For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand.

8 “Do not harden your heart, as at Meribah, or as on the day of Massah in the wilderness,

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:

9 where your forefathers tested me and tried me, though they had seen my deeds.

where your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works.

10 For forty years I was angry with that generation and said, 'This is a people whose hearts wander astray; they have not known my ways.'

Forty years was I grieved with this generation, and said, They do always err in their heart, and they have not known my ways.

11 Therefore I vowed in my anger that they would never enter into my resting place.”

So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.
