Psalm 95

⁴and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ.

¹For the choirmaster. According to Gittith. Of Asaph. Sing for joy to God our strength; make a joyful noise to the God of Jacob.

⁶Let everything that has breath praise the Lord! Hallelujah!

⁴⁷The Lord lives, and blessed be my Rock! And may God, the Rock of my salvation, be exalted—

¹Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth.

²Sing to the Lord, bless His name; proclaim His salvation day after day.

⁹Sing to Him, sing praises to Him; tell of all His wonders.

¹⁹Speak to one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your hearts to the Lord,

⁴Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise; give thanks to Him and bless His name.

¹²They will come and shout for joy on the heights of Zion; they will be radiant over the bounty of the Lord—the grain, new wine, and oil, and the young of the flocks and herds. Their life will be like a well-watered garden, and never again will they languish.

¹³Then the maidens will rejoice with dancing, young men and old as well. I will turn their mourning into joy, and give them comfort and joy for their sorrow.

²Sing to Him, sing praises to Him; tell of all His wonders.

⁶With what shall I come before the Lord when I bow before the God on high? Should I come to Him with burnt offerings, with year-old calves?

¹³Arise, O Lord, confront them! Bring them to their knees; deliver me from the wicked by Your sword,

⁴For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; He is to be feared above all gods.

⁶There is none like You, O Lord. You are great, and Your name is mighty in power.

⁷Who would not fear You, O King of nations? This is Your due. For among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms, there is none like You.

³Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised; His greatness is unsearchable.

⁹For You, O Lord, are Most High over all the earth; You are exalted far above all gods.

⁵For I know that the Lord is great; our Lord is above all gods.

¹¹Now I know that the Lord is greater than all other gods, for He did this when they treated Israel with arrogance.”

⁶The Lord does all that pleases Him in the heavens and on the earth, in the seas and in all their depths.

⁶He stood and measured the earth; He looked and startled the nations; the ancient mountains crumbled; the perpetual hills collapsed. His ways are everlasting.

¹⁰The mountains saw You and quaked; torrents of water swept by. The deep roared with its voice and lifted its hands on high.

⁵The mountains quake before Him, and the hills melt away; the earth trembles at His presence—the world and all its dwellers.

⁵He moves mountains without their knowledge and overturns them in His anger.

⁴The mountains will melt beneath Him, and the valleys will split apart, like wax before the fire, like water rushing down a slope.

⁹And God said, “Let the waters under the sky be gathered into one place, so that the dry land may appear.” And it was so.

¹⁰God called the dry land “earth,” and the gathering of waters He called “seas.” And God saw that it was good.

²⁹when He set a boundary for the sea, so that the waters would not surpass His command, when He marked out the foundations of the earth.

⁶the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them. He remains faithful forever.

⁷He piles up the waters of the sea; He puts the depths into storehouses.

²²Do you not fear Me?” declares the Lord. “Do you not tremble before Me, the One who set the sand as the boundary for the sea, an enduring barrier it cannot cross? The waves surge, but they cannot prevail. They roar but cannot cross it.

⁹“I am a Hebrew,” replied Jonah. “I worship the Lord, the God of the heavens, who made the sea and the dry land.”

¹⁰that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,

³Know that the Lord is God. It is He who made us, and we are His; we are His people, and the sheep of His pasture.

¹⁴... for this reason I bow my knees before the Father,

¹Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord; let us shout to the Rock of our salvation!

²⁰you were bought at a price. Therefore glorify God with your body.

¹⁰Now when Daniel learned that the document had been signed, he went into his house, where the windows of his upper room opened toward Jerusalem, and three times a day he got down on his knees, prayed, and gave thanks to his God, just as he had done before.

⁷God again designated a certain day as “Today,” when a long time later He spoke through David as was just stated: “Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts.”

¹⁵As it has been said: “Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts, as you did in the rebellion.”

²⁰Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in and dine with him, and he with Me.

⁷Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: “Today, if you hear His voice,

⁸do not harden your hearts, as you did in the rebellion, in the day of testing in the wilderness,

¹⁴I am the good shepherd. I know My sheep and My sheep know Me,

¹⁵just as the Father knows Me and I know the Father. And I lay down My life for the sheep.

¹⁴For this God is our God forever and ever; He will be our guide even till death.

⁷He named the place Massah and Meribah because the Israelites quarreled, and because they tested the Lord, saying, “Is the Lord among us or not?”

⁸do not harden your hearts, as you did in the rebellion, in the day of testing in the wilderness,

⁹where your fathers tested and tried Me, and for forty years saw My works.

¹³These were the waters of Meribah, where the Israelites quarreled with the Lord, and He showed His holiness among them.

¹¹And the Lord said to Moses, “How long will this people treat Me with contempt? How long will they refuse to believe in Me, despite all the signs I have performed among them?

²²not one of the men who have seen My glory and the signs I performed in Egypt and in the wilderness—yet have tested Me and disobeyed Me these ten times—

¹⁵As it has been said: “Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts, as you did in the rebellion.”

¹⁶For who were the ones who heard and rebelled? Were they not all those Moses led out of Egypt?

²²not one of the men who have seen My glory and the signs I performed in Egypt and in the wilderness—yet have tested Me and disobeyed Me these ten times—

⁹We should not test Christ, as some of them did, and were killed by snakes.

⁵⁶But they tested and disobeyed God Most High, for they did not keep His decrees.

⁴⁰How often they disobeyed Him in the wilderness and grieved Him in the desert!

⁴¹Again and again they tested God and provoked the Holy One of Israel.

¹⁷But they continued to sin against Him, rebelling in the desert against the Most High.

¹⁸They willfully tested God by demanding the food they craved.

²⁴If I had not done among them the works that no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin; but now they have seen and hated both Me and My Father.

¹⁷And with whom was God angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?

⁹where your fathers tested and tried Me, and for forty years saw My works.

¹⁰Therefore I was angry with that generation, and I said, ‘Their hearts are always going astray, and they have not known My ways.’

²²“How long, O simple ones, will you love your simple ways? How long will scoffers delight in their scorn and fools hate knowledge?

²³If you had repented at my rebuke, then surely I would have poured out my spirit on you; I would have made my words known to you.

¹⁷Why, O Lord, do You make us stray from Your ways and harden our hearts from fearing You? Return, for the sake of Your servants, the tribes of Your heritage.

¹⁸He endured their conduct for about forty years in the wilderness.

¹⁴The time we spent traveling from Kadesh-barnea until we crossed over the Brook of Zered was thirty-eight years, until that entire generation of fighting men had perished from the camp, as the Lord had sworn to them.

¹⁵Indeed, the Lord’s hand was against them, to eliminate them from the camp, until they had all perished.

³Now we who have believed enter that rest. As for the others, it is just as God has said: “So I swore on oath in My anger, ‘They shall never enter My rest.’” And yet His works have been finished since the foundation of the world.

²³not one will ever see the land that I swore to give their fathers. None of those who have treated Me with contempt will see it.

⁵And again, as He says in the passage above: “They shall never enter My rest.”

¹¹So I swore on oath in My anger, ‘They shall never enter My rest.’”

¹⁸And to whom did He swear that they would never enter His rest? Was it not to those who disobeyed?

¹⁶This is what the Lord says: “Stand at the crossroads and look. Ask for the ancient paths: ‘Where is the good way?’ Then walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls. But they said, ‘We will not walk in it!’
