Psalm 95

International Standard Version

³ For the Lord is an awesome God;
    a great king above all divine beings.^[a]
4 He holds in his hand the lowest parts of the earth
    and the mountain peaks belong to him.
⁵ The sea that he made belongs to him,
    along with the dry land that his hands formed.

⁶ Come! Let us worship and bow down;
    let us kneel in the presence of the Lord, who made us.
⁷ For he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture
    and the flock in his care.^[b]
If only you would listen to his voice today,
⁸ do not be stubborn like your ancestors were^[c] at Meribah,
as on that day at Massah, in the wilderness,
⁹ where your ancestors tested me.
They tested me,
    even though they had seen my awesome deeds.

¹⁰ For forty years I loathed that generation, so I said,
    “They are a people whose hearts continuously err,
        and they have not understood my ways.”
¹¹ So in my anger I declared an oath:
    “They are not to enter my place of rest.”
