Psalmorum 95

1 laus cantici David venite exultemus Domino iubilemus Deo salutari nostro

Come! Let us ring out our joy to the Lord, let us merrily shout to our rock of salvation.

2 praeoccupemus faciem eius in confessione et in psalmis iubilemus ei

Before his face let us come with thanks, with songs of praise let us shout to him.

3 quoniam Deus magnus Dominus et rex magnus super omnes deos

For the Lord is a great God, king above all gods.

4 quia in manu eius fines terrae et altitudines montium ipsius sunt

In his hand are the depths of the earth, the heights of the mountains are his.

5 quoniam ipsius est mare et ipse fecit illud et siccam manus eius formaverunt

The sea is his, for he made it: the dry land was formed by his hands.

6 venite adoremus et procidamus et ploremus ante Dominum qui fecit nos

Come! Let us worship and bow on our knees to the Lord our creator.

7 quia ipse est Deus noster et nos populus pascuae eius et oves manus eius

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 hodie si vocem eius audieritis nolite obdurare corda vestra

‘Do not harden your hearts as at Meribah, or at Massah, that day in the desert,

9 sicut in inritatione secundum diem temptationis in deserto ubi temptaverunt me patres vestri probaverunt me; et viderunt opera mea

when your ancestors tempted and tried me, though they had seen my deeds.

10 quadraginta annis offensus fui generationi illi et dixi semper errant corde

‘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 et isti non cognoverunt vias meas ut iuravi in ira mea si intrabunt in requiem meam

So I solemnly swore to them in my anger, that never would they enter my place of rest.’
