Psalms 95
Psalm 95
1 Come,(a) let us sing for joy(b) to the Lord;
let us shout aloud(c) to the Rock(d) of our salvation.
2 Let us come before him(e) with thanksgiving(f)
and extol him with music(g) and song.
3 For the Lord is the great God,(h)
the great King(i) above all gods.(j)
4 In his hand are the depths of the earth,(k)
and the mountain peaks belong to him.
5 The sea is his, for he made it,
and his hands formed the dry land.(l)
6 Come, let us bow down(m) in worship,(n)
let us kneel(o) before the Lord our Maker;(p)
7 for he is our God
and we are the people of his pasture,(q)
the flock under his care.
Today, if only you would hear his voice,
8 "Do not harden your hearts(r) as you did at Meribah,[a](s)
as you did that day at Massah[b] in the wilderness,(t)
9 where your ancestors tested(u) me;
they tried me, though they had seen what I did.
10 For forty years(v) I was angry with that generation;
I said, ‘They are a people whose hearts go astray,(w)
and they have not known my ways.'(x)
11 So I declared on oath(y) in my anger,
‘They shall never enter my rest.'"(z)
