Psalm 95
1Come, let’s sing out loud to the LORD!
Let’s raise a joyful shout to the rock of our salvation!
2Let’s come before him with thanks!
Let’s shout songs of joy to him!
3The LORD is a great God,
the great king over all other gods.
4The earth’s depths are in his hands;
the mountain heights belong to him;
5the sea, which he made, is his
along with the dry ground,
which his own hands formed.
6Come, let’s worship and bow down!
Let’s kneel before the LORD, our maker!
7He is our God,
and we are the people of his pasture,
the sheep in his hands.
If only you would listen to his voice right now!
8“Don’t harden your hearts
like you did at Meribah,
like you did when you were at Massah,
in the wilderness,
9when your ancestors tested me
and scrutinized me,
even though they had already seen my acts.
10For forty years I despised that generation;
I said, ‘These people have twisted hearts.
They don’t know my ways.’
11So in anger I swore:
‘They will never enter my place of rest!’”

Psalms 95
95
1-2Come, let’s shout praises to God,
raise the roof for the Rock who saved us!
Let’s march into his presence singing praises,
lifting the rafters with our hymns!
3-5And why? Because God is the best,
High King over all the gods.
In one hand he holds deep caves and caverns,
in the other hand grasps the high mountains.
He made Ocean—he owns it!
His hands sculpted Earth!
6-7a So come, let us worship: bow before him,
on your knees before God, who made us!
Oh yes, he’s our God,
and we’re the people he pastures, the flock he feeds.
7b-11 Drop everything and listen, listen as he speaks:
“Don’t turn a deaf ear as in the Bitter Uprising,
As on the day of the Wilderness Test,
when your ancestors turned and put me to the test.
For forty years they watched me at work among them,
as over and over they tried my patience.
And I was provoked—oh, was I provoked!
‘Can’t they keep their minds on God for five minutes?
Do they simply refuse to walk down my road?’
Exasperated, I exploded,
‘They’ll never get where they’re headed,
never be able to sit down and rest.’”
