சங்கீதம் 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.
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.
8 ௮ இன்று அவருடைய சத்தத்தைக் கேட்பீர்களென்றால், வனாந்திரத்தில் கோபம் மூட்டினபோதும் சோதனை நாளிலும் நடந்ததுபோல, உங்களுடைய இருதயத்தைக் கடினப்படுத்தாமலிருங்கள்.
He says, “Do not become stubborn [IDM] like [your ancestors] did at Meribah, and like [they did] at Massah in the desert.
9 ௯ அங்கே உங்களுடைய முற்பிதாக்கள் என்னைச் சோதித்து, என்னைப் பரீட்சை பார்த்து, என்னுடைய செயல்களையும் கண்டார்கள்.
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 ௧0 நாற்பது வருடங்களாக நான் அந்தச் சந்ததியின்மேல் கோபமாக இருந்து, அவர்கள் வழுவிப்போகிற இருதயமுள்ள மக்களென்றும், என்னுடைய வழிகளை அறியாதவர்களென்றும் சொல்லி,
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!’”
