ਜ਼ਬੂਰ 95
Come, sing to Yahweh; sing joyfully to the one who protects us [MET] and saves us!
We should thank him as we come before him, and sing (joyful songs/joyfully) as we praise him.
Because Yahweh is the great God, he is a great king [who rules] over all [other] gods.
He rules over the whole earth, from the deepest places/caves to the highest mountains.
The seas are his, because he made them. He is [also] the one who [SYN] formed/made the dry land.
We should come, worship, and bow down before him. We should kneel before Yahweh, the one who made us.
7 ੭ ਉਹ ਤਾਂ ਸਾਡਾ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਹੈ, ਅਸੀਂ ਉਹ ਦੀ ਜੂਹ ਦੀ ਪਰਜਾ ਅਤੇ ਉਹ ਦੇ ਹੱਥ ਦੀਆਂ ਭੇਡਾਂ ਹਾਂ। ਕਾਸ਼ ਕਿ ਤੁਸੀਂ ਅੱਜ ਉਸ ਦੀ ਅਵਾਜ਼ ਸੁਣਦੇ!
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.
He says, “Do not become stubborn [IDM] like [your ancestors] did at Meribah, and like [they did] at Massah in the desert.
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].
10 ੧੦ ਚਾਲ੍ਹੀ ਵਰ੍ਹਿਆਂ ਤੱਕ ਮੈਂ ਉਸ ਪੀੜ੍ਹੀ ਤੋਂ ਕ੍ਰੋਧਿਤ ਰਿਹਾ, ਤਾਂ ਮੈਂ ਆਖਿਆ ਕਿ ਇਹ ਤਾਂ ਫਿਰਤੂ ਮਨ ਦੇ ਲੋਕ ਹਨ, ਜਿਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਮੇਰੇ ਰਾਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਨਹੀਂ ਜਾਣਿਆ,
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.’
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!’”
