תהילים 95
| לְכוּ נְרַנְּנָה לַיהֹוָה נָרִיעָה לְצוּר יִשְׁעֵֽנוּ׃ | 1 |
Come, sing to Yahweh; sing joyfully to the one who protects us [MET] and saves us!
| נְקַדְּמָה פָנָיו בְּתוֹדָה בִּזְמִרוֹת נָרִיעַֽ לֽוֹ׃ | 2 |
We should thank him as we come before him, and sing (joyful songs/joyfully) as we praise him.
| כִּי אֵל גָּדוֹל יְהֹוָה וּמֶלֶךְ גָּדוֹל עַל־כׇּל־אֱלֹהִֽים׃ | 3 |
Because Yahweh is the great God, he is a great king [who rules] over all [other] gods.
| אֲשֶׁר בְּיָדוֹ מֶחְקְרֵי־אָרֶץ וְתוֹעֲפֹת הָרִים לֽוֹ׃ | 4 |
He rules over the whole earth, from the deepest places/caves to the highest mountains.
| אֲשֶׁר־לוֹ הַיָּם וְהוּא עָשָׂהוּ וְיַבֶּשֶׁת יָדָיו יָצָֽרוּ׃ | 5 |
The seas are his, because he made them. He is [also] the one who [SYN] formed/made the dry land.
| בֹּאוּ נִשְׁתַּחֲוֶה וְנִכְרָעָה נִבְרְכָה לִֽפְנֵי־יְהֹוָה עֹשֵֽׂנוּ׃ | 6 |
We should come, worship, and bow down before him. We should kneel before Yahweh, the one who made us.
| כִּי הוּא אֱלֹהֵינוּ וַאֲנַחְנוּ עַם מַרְעִיתוֹ וְצֹאן יָדוֹ הַיּוֹם אִֽם־בְּקֹלוֹ תִשְׁמָֽעוּ׃ | 7 |
He is our God, and we are the people whom he takes care of [MET]; like sheep [that a shepherd] takes care of. Today, listen to what Yahweh is saying to you.
| אַל־תַּקְשׁוּ לְבַבְכֶם כִּמְרִיבָה כְּיוֹם מַסָּה בַּמִּדְבָּֽר׃ | 8 |
He says, “Do not become stubborn [IDM] like [your ancestors] did at Meribah, and like [they did] at Massah in the desert.
| אֲשֶׁר נִסּוּנִי אֲבֽוֹתֵיכֶם בְּחָנוּנִי גַּם־רָאוּ פׇעֳלִֽי׃ | 9 |
There your ancestors (wanted to see/tried to determine) if they could do many very evil things [without my punishing them]. Even though they had seen me perform [many] miracles, they tested whether I [would continue to be patient with them].
| אַרְבָּעִים שָׁנָה ׀ אָקוּט בְּדוֹר וָאֹמַר עַם תֹּעֵי לֵבָב הֵם וְהֵם לֹא־יָדְעוּ דְרָכָֽי׃ | 10 |
For 40 years I was angry with those people, and I said, ‘Those people say that they want to please me, but they do things that I detest. They refuse to obey my commands.’
| אֲשֶׁר־נִשְׁבַּעְתִּי בְאַפִּי אִם־יְבֹאוּן אֶל־מְנוּחָתִֽי׃ | 11 |
So because I was very angry, I solemnly said/declared about them: ‘They will never enter [the land of Canaan] where I would have allowed them to rest!’”
