< Psalms 95 >

1 Come, let's sing for joy to the Lord! Let's shout in triumph to the rock of our salvation!
Come, let us sing aloud to Jehovah, let us shout for joy to the rock of our salvation;
2 Let's go before him with thanksgiving! Let's sing loudly to him in celebration!
Let us come before his face with thanksgiving; let us shout aloud unto him with psalms.
3 For the Lord is a great God, a great king above all gods.
For Jehovah is a great God, and a great king above all gods.
4 He rules over the depths of the earth and the heights of the mountains.
In his hand are the deep places of the earth; the heights of the mountains are his also:
5 The sea is his, because he made it; the dry land, because he formed it.
The sea is his, and he made it, and his hands formed the dry [land].
6 Come, let's enter in and worship, let's kneel before the Lord our Creator.
Come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before Jehovah our Maker.
7 For he is our God, and we are the people he looks after like a shepherd, the flock he cares for. If you hear his voice calling you today,
For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand. To-day if ye hear his voice,
8 don't have a hard-hearted attitude, “as you did at Meribah, as you did that day at Massah in the desert,
Harden not your heart, as at Meribah, as [in] the day of Massah, in the wilderness;
9 when your forefathers provoked me, testing my patience, even though they had seen everything I'd done.
When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.
10 For forty years I was disgusted with that generation, and I said, ‘They are people who are unfaithful to me in their minds, and they refuse to accept my ways.’
Forty years was I grieved with the generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways;
11 So in my frustration I vowed, ‘They will certainly not enter my rest.’”
So that I swore in mine anger, that they should not enter into my rest.
