95 Come, we sing to Jehovah, We shout to the rock of our salvation.

We come before His face with thanksgiving, With psalms we shout to Him.

For a great God [is] Jehovah, And a great king over all gods.

In whose hand [are] the deep places of earth, And the strong places of hills [are] His.

Whose is the sea, and He made it, And His hands formed the dry land.

Come in, we bow ourselves, and we bend, We kneel before Jehovah our Maker.

For He [is] our God, and we the people of His pasture, And the flock of His hand, To-day, if to His voice ye hearken,

Harden not your heart as [in] Meribah, As [in] the day of Massah in the wilderness,

Where your fathers have tried Me, Have proved Me, yea, have seen My work.

10 Forty years I am weary of the generation, And I say, `A people erring in heart -- they! And they have not known My ways:'

11 Where I sware in Mine anger, `If they come in unto My rest -- !'

Psalm 95

Come,(A) let us sing for joy(B) to the Lord;
    let us shout aloud(C) to the Rock(D) of our salvation.
Let us come before him(E) with thanksgiving(F)
    and extol him with music(G) and song.

For the Lord is the great God,(H)
    the great King(I) above all gods.(J)
In his hand are the depths of the earth,(K)
    and the mountain peaks belong to him.
The sea is his, for he made it,
    and his hands formed the dry land.(L)

Come, let us bow down(M) in worship,(N)
    let us kneel(O) before the Lord our Maker;(P)
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,
“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)
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)
