Chapter 95

Exhortation to praise God


1

Oh, come, let us sing unto the Lord; let us make a joyful noise to the Rock of our salvation.

2

Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.

3

For the Lord is a great God and a great King above all gods.

4

In his hand are the deep places of the earth; the strength of the hills is his also.

5

The sea is his, and he made it; and his hand formed the dry land.

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 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.
