Psalm 94

1 O Jehovah, thou God to whom vengeance belongeth, Thou God to whom vengeance belongeth, shine forth.

2 Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth: Render to the proud their desert.

3 Jehovah, how long shall the wicked, How long shall the wicked triumph?

4 They prate, they speak arrogantly: All the workers of iniquity boast themselves.

5 They break in pieces thy people, O Jehovah, And afflict thy heritage.

6 They slay the widow and the sojourner, And murder the fatherless.

7 And they say, Jehovah will not see, Neither will the God of Jacob consider.

8 Consider, ye brutish among the people; And ye fools, when will ye be wise?

9 He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? He that formed the eye, shall he not see?

10 He that chastiseth the nations, shall not he correct, Even he that teacheth man knowledge?

11 Jehovah knoweth the thoughts of man, That they are vanity.

12 Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O Jehovah, And teachest out of thy law;

13 That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, Until the pit be digged for the wicked.

14 For Jehovah will not cast off his people, Neither will he forsake his inheritance.

15 For judgment shall return unto righteousness; And all the upright in heart shall follow it.

16 Who will rise up for me against the evil-doers? Who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?

17 Unless Jehovah had been my help, My soul had soon dwelt in silence.

18 When I said, My foot slippeth; Thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, held me up.

19 In the multitude of my thoughts within me Thy comforts delight my soul.

20 Shall the throne of wickedness have fellowship with thee, Which frameth mischief by statute?

21 They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, And condemn the innocent blood.

22 But Jehovah hath been my high tower, And my God the rock of my refuge.

23 And he hath brought upon them their own iniquity, And will cut them off in their own wickedness; Jehovah our God will cut them off.

Psalm 95

1 Oh come, let us sing unto Jehovah; Let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation.

2 Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving; Let us make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.

3 For Jehovah is a great God, And a great King above all gods.

4 In his hand are the deep places of the earth; The heights of the mountains are his also.

5 The sea is his, and he made it; And his hands formed the dry land.

6 Oh 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 of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To-day, oh that ye would hear his voice!

8 Harden not your heart, as at Meribah, As in the day of Massah in the wilderness;

9 When your fathers tempted me, Proved me, and saw my work.

10 Forty years long was I grieved with that generation, And said, It is a people that do err in their heart, And they have not known my ways:

11 Wherefore I sware in my wrath, That they should not enter into my rest.

Psalm 96

1 Oh sing unto Jehovah a new song: Sing unto Jehovah, all the earth.

2 Sing unto Jehovah, bless his name; Show forth his salvation from day to day.

3 Declare his glory among the nations, His marvellous works among all the peoples.

4 For great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised: He is to be feared above all gods.

5 For all the gods of the peoples are idols; But Jehovah made the heavens.

6 Honor and majesty are before him: Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.

7 Ascribe unto Jehovah, ye kindreds of the peoples, Ascribe unto Jehovah glory and strength.

8 Ascribe unto Jehovah the glory due unto his name: Bring an offering, and come into his courts.

9 Oh worship Jehovah in holy array: Tremble before him, all the earth.

10 Say among the nations, Jehovah reigneth: The world also is established that it cannot be moved: He will judge the peoples with equity.

11 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof;

12 Let the field exult, and all that is therein; Then shall all the trees of the wood sing for joy

13 Before Jehovah; for he cometh, For he cometh to judge the earth: He will judge the world with righteousness, And the peoples with his truth.
