תְהִלִּים 95

1 לְ֭כוּ נְרַנְּנָ֣ה לַיהוָ֑ה נָ֝רִ֗יעָה לְצ֣וּר יִשְׁעֵֽנוּ׃

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 נְקַדְּמָ֣ה פָנָ֣יו בְּתֹודָ֑ה בִּ֝זְמִרֹ֗ות נָרִ֥יעַֽ לֹֽו׃

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

3 כִּ֤י אֵ֣ל גָּדֹ֣ול יְהוָ֑ה וּמֶ֥לֶךְ גָּ֝דֹ֗ול עַל־כָּל־אֱלֹהִֽים׃

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

4 אֲשֶׁ֣ר בְּ֭יָדֹו מֶחְקְרֵי־אָ֑רֶץ וְתֹועֲפֹ֖ות הָרִ֣ים לֹֽו׃

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

5 אֲשֶׁר־לֹ֣ו הַ֭יָּם וְה֣וּא עָשָׂ֑הוּ וְ֝יַבֶּ֗שֶׁת יָדָ֥יו יָצָֽרוּ׃

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

6 בֹּ֭אוּ נִשְׁתַּחֲוֶ֣ה וְנִכְרָ֑עָה נִ֝בְרְכָ֗ה לִֽפְנֵי־יְהוָ֥ה עֹשֵֽׂנוּ׃

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

7 כִּ֘י ה֤וּא אֱלֹהֵ֗ינוּ וַאֲנַ֤חְנוּ עַ֣ם מַ֭רְעִיתֹו וְצֹ֣אן יָדֹ֑ו הַ֝יֹּ֗ום אִֽם־בְּקֹלֹ֥ו תִשְׁמָֽעוּ׃

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

8 אַל־תַּקְשׁ֣וּ לְ֭בַבְכֶם כִּמְרִיבָ֑ה כְּיֹ֥ום מַ֝סָּ֗ה בַּמִּדְבָּֽר׃

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 אֲשֶׁ֣ר נִ֭סּוּנִי אֲבֹותֵיכֶ֑ם בְּ֝חָנ֗וּנִי גַּם־רָא֥וּ פָעֳלֽ͏ִי׃

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

10 אַרְבָּ֘עִ֤ים שָׁנָ֨ה ׀ אָ֘ק֤וּט בְּדֹ֗ור וָאֹמַ֗ר עַ֤ם תֹּעֵ֣י לֵבָ֣ב הֵ֑ם וְ֝הֵ֗ם לֹא־יָדְע֥וּ דְרָכָֽי׃

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 אֲשֶׁר־נִשְׁבַּ֥עְתִּי בְאַפִּ֑י אִם־יְ֝בֹא֗וּן אֶל־מְנוּחָתִֽי׃

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