Psalm 95:1-11

    • “Today if you listen to his voice” (7)

    • “Do not harden your heart” (8)

    • “They will not enter into my rest” (11)

95  Come, let us shout joyfully to Jehovah! Let us shout in triumph to our Rock of salvation.+   Let us come into his presence* with thanksgiving;+Let us sing and shout in triumph to him.   For Jehovah is a great God,A great King over all other gods.+   In his hand are the depths of the earth;The mountain peaks belong to him.+   The sea, which he made, belongs to him,+And his hands formed the dry land.+   Come, let us worship and bow down;Let us kneel before Jehovah our Maker.+   For he is our God,And we are the people of his pasture,The sheep in his care.*+ Today if you listen to his voice,+   Do not harden your heart as at Merʹi·bah,*+As in the day of Masʹsah* in the wilderness,+   When your forefathers tested me;+They challenged me, though they had seen my works.+ 10  For 40 years I felt a loathing toward that generation, and I said: “They are a people who always go astray in their hearts;They have not come to know my ways.” 11  So I swore in my anger: “They will not enter into my rest.”+
