Psalm 95

New International Version

Psalm 95

¹Come,^(A) let us sing for joy^(B) to the Lord;
let us shout aloud^(C) to the Rock^(D) of our salvation.
²Let us come before him^(E) with thanksgiving^(F)
and extol him with music^(G) and song.

³For the Lord is the great God,^(H)
    the great King^(I) above all gods.^(J)
⁴In his hand are the depths of the earth,^(K)
    and the mountain peaks belong to him.
⁵The sea is his, for he made it,
    and his hands formed the dry land.^(L)

⁶Come, let us bow down^(M) in worship,^(N)
    let us kneel^(O) before the Lord our Maker;^(P)
⁷for he is our God
    and we are the people of his pasture,^(Q)
    the flock under his care.

Today, if only you would hear his voice,
⁸“Do not harden your hearts^(R) as you did at Meribah,^[a]^(S)
    as you did that day at Massah^[b] in the wilderness,^(T)
⁹where your ancestors tested^(U) me;
    they tried me, though they had seen what I did.
¹⁰For forty years^(V) I was angry with that generation;
    I said, ‘They are a people whose hearts go astray,^(W)
    and they have not known my ways.’^(X)
¹¹So I declared on oath^(Y) in my anger,
    ‘They shall never enter my rest.’”^(Z)

The Faithful Remnant

¹⁶Then those who feared the Lord talked with each other, and the Lord listened and heard.^(A) A scroll^(B) of remembrance was written in his presence concerning those who feared^(C) the Lord and honored his name.

¹⁷“On the day when I act,” says the Lord Almighty, “they will be my^(D) treasured possession.^(E) I will spare^(F) them, just as a father has compassion and spares his son^(G) who serves him. ¹⁸And you will again see the distinction between the righteous^(H) and the wicked, between those who serve God and those who do not.^(I)

Judgment and Covenant Renewal

4 ^[a]“Surely the day is coming;^(J) it will burn like a furnace.^(K) All the arrogant^(L) and every evildoer will be stubble,^(M) and the day that is coming will set them on fire,^(N)” says the Lord Almighty. “Not a root or a branch^(O) will be left to them. ²But for you who revere my name,^(P) the sun of righteousness^(Q) will rise with healing^(R) in its rays. And you will go out and frolic^(S) like well-fed calves. ³Then you will trample^(T) on the wicked; they will be ashes^(U) under the soles of your feet on the day when I act,” says the Lord Almighty.

⁴“Remember the law^(V) of my servant Moses, the decrees and laws I gave him at Horeb^(W) for all Israel.^(X)

⁵“See, I will send the prophet Elijah^(Y) to you before that great and dreadful day of the Lord comes.^(Z) ⁶He will turn the hearts of the parents to their children,^(AA) and the hearts of the children to their parents; or else I will come and strike^(AB) the land with total destruction.”^(AC)
