Psalm 95

A Call to Worship and Obey

95Come, let us sing for joy to Yahweh;

let us shout joyfully to the rock of our salvation.

²Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving;

with songs let us shout joyfully to him.

³For Yahweh is the^a great God,

and the great king over all gods,

⁴in whose hand are the unexplored places^b of the earth,

and the heights of the mountains are his,

⁵to whom belongs the sea that he made, ^c

and the dry land that his hands formed.

⁶Come in, let us worship and bow down;

let us kneel before Yahweh, our maker.

⁷For he is our God,

and we are the people of his pasture

and the sheep of his hand.

Today^d if you will hear his voice:^e

⁸“Do not harden your heart as at Meribah,

as in the day of Massah in the wilderness,

⁹when your ancestors^f tried me.

They put me to the test,

even though they had seen my work.

¹⁰For forty years I loathed that generation,

and said, ‘They are a people whose heart wanders.

And my ways they do not know.’

¹¹Therefore I swore in my anger,

‘They shall surely not enter into my rest.’ ”
