Psalm 95

³ The Lord is the great God.
    He is the greatest King.
    He rules over all the gods.
⁴ He owns the deepest parts of the earth.
    The mountain peaks belong to him.
⁵ The ocean is his, because he made it.
    He formed the dry land with his hands.

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.

If only you would listen to his voice today.
⁸     He says, “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 tested me.
    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 astray.
    They do not know how I want them to live.’
¹¹ So when I was angry, I made a promise.
    I said, ‘They will never enjoy the rest I planned for them.’ ”
