1O come, let us sing unto the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation.
2Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.95.2 come…: Heb. prevent his face
3For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods.
4In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is his also.95.4 In…: Heb. In whose95.4 the strength…: or, the heights of the hills are his
5The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.95.5 The sea…: Heb. Whose the sea is
6O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker.
7For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To day if ye will hear his voice,
8Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness:95.8 provocation: Heb. contention
9When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.
10Forty 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:
11Unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest.95.11 that…: Heb. if they enter into my rest
Tilbedelse og lydighed
1Kom, lad os lovprise Herren med sang,
lad os råbe af fryd for vor Frelser.
2Lad os komme til ham med tak,
lad os spille og synge til hans ære.
3For Herren er den almægtige Gud,
Kongen over alle guder.
4Han hersker over havenes dyb,
de mægtige bjerge tilhører ham.
5Han skabte både hav og land,
derfor tilhører det hele ham.
6Kom, lad os bøje os og tilbede vor Gud,
lad os knæle for Herren, vor Skaber.
7Han er vor Gud, og vi er hans folk,
den hjord, han vogter og tager sig af.
Gid I ville lytte til, hvad han siger i dag:
8Lad være med at lukke af for mit ord,
som da jeres forfædre gjorde oprør ved Meriba95,8 Meriba betyder „strid, skænderi, oprør”, og Massa betyder „provokation”, jf. 2.Mos. 17,7.
og satte sig op imod mig ved Massa i ørkenen.
9De provokerede mig og satte mig på prøve,
selv om de havde set mine undere i 40 år.
10Jeg blev vred på dem og sagde:
„De går altid deres egne veje,
i stedet for at følge mine.”
11Så svor jeg i min vrede:
„De skal ikke få lov at opleve min hvile.”
