Psalm 95

Praise to the Lord and Warning against Unbelief.

1Come, let’s sing for joy to the Lord,

Let’s shout joyfully to the rock of our salvation.

2Let’s come before His presence with a song of thanksgiving,

Let’s shout joyfully to Him in songs with instruments.

3For the Lord is a great God

And a great King above all gods,

4In whose hand are the depths of the earth,

The peaks of the mountains are also His.

5 95:5 Lit Who has the seaThe sea is His, for it was He who made it,

And His hands formed the dry land.

6¶Come, let’s worship and bow down,

Let’s kneel before the Lord our Maker.

7For He is our God,

And we are the people of His 95:7 Lit pasturingpasture and the sheep of His hand.

Today, 95:7 Or O that you would obeyif you will hear His voice,

8Do not harden your hearts as at 95:8 Or place of strifeMeribah,

As on the day of 95:8 Or temptationMassah in the wilderness,

9“When your fathers put Me to the test,

They tested Me, though they had seen My work.

10“For forty years I was disgusted with that generation,

And said they are a people who err in their heart,

And they do not know My ways.

11“Therefore I swore in My anger,

They certainly shall not enter My rest.”
