Psalm 95

New International Version

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.” ’

Psalm 95

English Standard Version

Let Us Sing Songs of Praise

1 Oh come, let us sing to the Lord; let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation! (Ps 66:1; Ps 89:26; Ps 94:22) 

2 Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise! (Ps 95:1; Mic 6:6) 

3 For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods. (2Ch 2:5; Ps 86:8; Ps 93:4; Ps 96:4; Ps 97:9; Ps 135:5) 

4 In his hand are the depths of the earth; the heights of the mountains are his also. 

5 The sea is his, for he made it, and his hands formed the dry land. (Ge 1:9; Jon 1:9) 

6 Oh come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker! (De 32:6; De 32:15; De 32:18; 2Ch 6:13; Ps 100:3; Ps 149:2; Da 6:10) 

7 For he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. Today, if you hear his voice, (Nu 14:22; Ps 48:14; Ps 74:1; Heb 3:7; Heb 3:15; Heb 4:7) 

8 do not harden your hearts, as at Meribah, as on the day at Massah in the wilderness, (Ex 9:34; Ex 17:7; Nu 20:13; De 6:16; 1Sa 6:6; 2Ch 36:13; Pr 28:14) 

9 when your fathers put me to the test and put me to the proof, though they had seen my work. (Nu 14:22; Ps 78:18; Ps 78:41; Ps 78:56; Ps 90:16; 1Co 10:9) 

10 For forty years I loathed that generation and said, “They are a people who go astray in their heart, and they have not known my ways.” (De 9:7; Ps 81:13; Ac 7:36; Ac 13:18; Heb 3:17) 

11 Therefore I swore in my wrath, “They shall not enter my rest.” (Nu 14:23; Nu 14:28; Nu 14:30; De 1:35; De 12:9; Heb 3:11; Heb 4:3; Heb 4:5)
