Psalm 95:7-11
Good News Translation
7 (A)He is our God;
we are the people he cares for,
the flock for which he provides.
Listen today to what he says:
8 (B)“Don't be stubborn, as your ancestors were at Meribah,
as they were that day in the desert at Massah.
9 There they put me to the test and tried me,
although they had seen what I did for them.
10 For forty years I was disgusted with those people.
I said, ‘How disloyal they are!
They refuse to obey my commands.’
11 (C)I was angry and made a solemn promise:
‘You will never enter the land
where I would have given you rest.’”
Psalm 95:7-11
New International Version
7 for he is our God
and we are the people of his pasture,(A)
the flock under his care.
Today, if only you would hear his voice,
8 “Do not harden your hearts(B) as you did at Meribah,[a](C)
as you did that day at Massah[b] in the wilderness,(D)
9 where your ancestors tested(E) me;
they tried me, though they had seen what I did.
10 For forty years(F) I was angry with that generation;
I said, ‘They are a people whose hearts go astray,(G)
and they have not known my ways.’(H)
11 So I declared on oath(I) in my anger,
‘They shall never enter my rest.’”(J)
