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.’ ”

6 Oh come, let us worship and bow down;

let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker!

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,

8 do not harden your hearts, as at Meribah,

as on the day at Massah in the wilderness,

9 when your fathers put me to the test

and put me to the proof, though they had seen my work.

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.”

11 Therefore I swore in my wrath,

“They shall not enter my rest.”

6 O come, let us worship and bow down:

Let us kneel before the Lord our maker.

7 For he is our God;

And we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand.

To day if ye will hear his voice,

8 Harden not your heart, as in the provocation,

And as in the day of temptation in the wilderness:

9 When your fathers tempted me,

Proved me, and saw my work.

10 Forty years long was I grieved with this generation,

And said, It is a people that do err in their heart,

And they have not known my ways:

11 Unto whom I sware in my wrath

That they should not enter into my rest.

6 Come, let us worship and bow down.

Let us kneel before the Lord our maker,

7 for he is our God.

We are the people he watches over,

the flock under his care.

If only you would listen to his voice today!

8 The Lord says, “Don’t harden your hearts as Israel did at Meribah,

as they did at Massah in the wilderness.

9 For there your ancestors tested and tried my patience,

even though they saw everything I did.

10 For forty years I was angry with them, and I said,

‘They are a people whose hearts turn away from me.

They refuse to do what I tell them.’

11 So in my anger I took an oath:

‘They will never enter my place of rest.’ ”

6 Oh come, let us worship and bow down;

Let us kneel before the Lord our Maker.

7 For He is our God,

And we are the people of His pasture,

And the sheep of His hand.

Today, if you will hear His voice:

8 “Do not harden your hearts, as in the rebellion,

As in the day of trial in the wilderness,

9 When your fathers tested Me;

They tried Me, though they saw My work.

10 For forty years I was grieved with that generation,

And said, ‘It is a people who go astray in their hearts,

And they do not know My ways.’

11 So I swore in My wrath,

‘They shall not enter My rest.’ ”

6 Come, let’s worship him and bow down.

Let’s kneel before the Lord who made us,

7 because he is our God

and we are the people he takes care of,

the sheep that he tends.

Today listen to what he says:

8 “Do not be stubborn, as your ancestors were at Meribah,

as they were that day at Massah in the desert.

9 There your ancestors tested me

and tried me even though they saw what I did.

10 I was angry with those people for forty years.

I said, ‘They are not loyal to me

and have not understood my ways.’

11 I was angry and made a promise,

‘They will never enter my rest.’ ”

6 Oh come, let us worship and bow down;

Let us kneel before Jehovah our Maker:

7 For he is our God,

And we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand.

To-day, oh that ye would hear his voice!

8 Harden not your heart, as at Meribah,

As in the day of Massah in the wilderness;

9 When your fathers tempted me,

Proved me, and saw my work.

10 Forty years long was I grieved with that generation,

And said, It is a people that do err in their heart,

And they have not known my ways:

11 Wherefore I sware in my wrath,

That they should not enter into my rest.

6 Come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before Jehovah our Maker.

7 For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand. To-day if ye hear his voice, 8 Harden not your heart, as at Meribah, as in the day of Massah, in the wilderness; 9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work. 10 Forty years was I grieved with the generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways; 11 So that I swore in mine anger, that they should not enter into my rest.

6 Come, let’s worship and bow down. 

Let’s kneel in front of the Lord, our maker, 

7 because he is our God 

and we are the people in his care, 

the flock that he leads. 

If only you would listen to him today! 

8 “Do not be stubborn like ⸤my people were⸥ at Meribah, 

like the time at Massah in the desert. 

9 Your ancestors challenged me and tested me there, 

although they had seen what I had done. 

10 For 40 years I was disgusted with those people. 

So I said, ‘They are a people whose hearts continue to stray. 

They have not learned my ways.’ 

11 That is why I angrily took this solemn oath: 

‘They will never enter my place of rest!’ ” 

6 Come, let us worship and bow down;

let us kneel before the Lord our Maker.

7 For He is our God,

and we are the people of His pasture,

the sheep under His care.

Today, if you hear His voice:

8 Do not harden your hearts as at Meribah,

as on that day at Massah in the wilderness

9 where your fathers tested Me;

they tried Me, though they had seen what I did.

10 For 40 years I was disgusted with that generation;

I said, “They are a people whose hearts go astray;

they do not know My ways.”

11 So I swore in My anger,

“They will not enter My rest.”

6 O come, let us worship and bow down,

let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker!

7 For he is our God,

and we are the people of his pasture,

and the sheep of his hand.

O that today you would listen to his voice!

8 Do not harden your hearts, as at Meribah,

as on the day at Massah in the wilderness,

9 when your ancestors tested me,

and put me to the proof, though they had seen my work.

10 For forty years I loathed that generation

and said, “They are a people whose hearts go astray,

and they do not regard my ways.”

11 Therefore in my anger I swore,

“They shall not enter my rest.”

6 Come in, let us worship and bow down;

let us kneel before Yahweh, our maker.

7 For he is our God,

and we are the people of his pasture

and the sheep of his hand.

Today if you will hear his voice:

8 “Do not harden your heart as at Meribah,

as in the day of Massah in the wilderness,

9 when your ancestors tried me.

They put me to the test,

even though they had seen my work.

10 For forty years I loathed that generation,

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

And my ways they do not know.’

11 Therefore I swore in my anger,

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

6 Come, let us bow down and worship him.

Let us fall on our knees in front of the Lord our Maker.

7 He is our God.

We are the sheep belonging to his flock.

We are the people he takes good care of.

Listen to his voice today.

8 If you hear it, don’t be stubborn as you were at Meribah.

Don’t be stubborn as you were that day at Massah in the desert.

9 There your people of long ago really put me to the test.

They did it even though they had seen what I had done for them.

10 For 40 years I was angry with them.

I said, “Their hearts are always going down the wrong path.

They do not know how I want them to live.”

11 So when I was angry, I took an oath.

I said, “They will never enjoy the rest I planned for them.”
