Psalm 95

1 Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord;
let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation.

2 Let us come before him with thanksgiving
and extol him with music and song.

3 For the Lord is the great God,
the great King above all gods.

4 In his hand are the depths of the earth,
and the mountain peaks belong to him.

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

6 Come, let us bow down in worship,
let us kneel before the Lord our Maker;

7 for he is our God
and we are the people of his pasture,
the flock under his care.
Today, if only you would hear his voice,

8 “Do not harden your hearts as you did at Meribah,
as you did that day at Massah in the wilderness,

9 where your ancestors tested me;
they tried me, though they had seen what I did.

10 For forty years I was angry with that generation;
I said, ‘They are a people whose hearts go astray,
and they have not known my ways.’

11 So I declared on oath in my anger,
‘They shall never enter my rest.’”

PSALMS 95

Worship and Obey the //[Lord]

1 Sing joyful songs to the [Lord]!
Praise the mighty rockt
where we are safe.

2 Come to worship him
with thankful hearts
and songs of praise.

3 The [Lord] is the greatest God,
king over all other gods.

4 He holds the deepest part
of the earth in his hands,
and the mountain peaks
also belong to him.

5 The ocean is the Lord's
because he made it,
and with his own hands
he formed the dry land.

6 Bow down and worship
the [Lord] our Creator!

7  t t The [Lord] is our God,
and we are his people,
the sheep he takes care of
in his own pasture.
Listen to God's voice today!

8  t Don't be stubborn and rebel
as your ancestors did
at Meribah and Massaht
out in the desert.

9 For forty years
they tested God and saw
the things he did.

10 Then God got tired of them
and said,
“You never show good sense,
and you don't understand
what I want you to do.”

11  t In his anger, God told them,
“You people will never enter
my place of rest.”
