< Psalms 95 >
1 Come, we sing to Jehovah, We shout to the rock of our salvation.
Come! Let us ring out our joy to the Lord, let us merrily shout to our rock of salvation.
2 We come before His face with thanksgiving, With psalms we shout to Him.
Before his face let us come with thanks, with songs of praise let us shout to him.
3 For a great God [is] Jehovah, And a great king over all gods.
For the Lord is a great God, king above all gods.
4 In whose hand [are] the deep places of earth, And the strong places of hills [are] His.
In his hand are the depths of the earth, the heights of the mountains are his.
5 Whose is the sea, and He made it, And His hands formed the dry land.
The sea is his, for he made it: the dry land was formed by his hands.
6 Come in, we bow ourselves, and we bend, We kneel before Jehovah our Maker.
Come! Let us worship and bow on our knees to the Lord our creator.
7 For He [is] our God, and we the people of His pasture, And the flock of His hand, To-day, if to His voice ye hearken,
For he is our God; and we are the people he tends, the sheep in his care. If only you would heed his voice today:
8 Harden not your heart as [in] Meribah, As [in] the day of Massah in the wilderness,
“Do not harden your hearts as at Meribah, or at Massah, that day in the desert,
9 Where your fathers have tried Me, Have proved Me, yea, have seen My work.
when your ancestors tempted and tried me, though they had seen my deeds.
10 Forty years I am weary of the generation, And I say, 'A people erring in heart — they! And they have not known My ways:'
“For forty years I was filled with loathing for that generation, so I said: ‘A people with wandering hearts are they, and ignorant of my ways.’
11 Where I sware in Mine anger, 'If they come in unto My rest —!'
So I solemnly swore to them in my anger, that never would they enter my place of rest.”
