Psalm 95

(read by Carol Lopez)

95:1 Oh come, let's sing to Yahweh. Let's shout aloud to the rock of our salvation!

95:2 Let's come before his presence with thanksgiving. Let's extol him with songs!

95:3 For Yahweh is a great God, a great King above all gods.

95:4 In his hand are the deep places of the earth. The heights of the mountains are also his.

95:5 The sea is his, and he made it. His hands formed the dry land.

95:6 Oh come, let's worship and bow down. Let's kneel before Yahweh, our Maker,

95:7 for he is our God. We are the people of his pasture, and the sheep in his care. Today, oh that you would hear his voice!

95:8 Don't harden your heart, as at Meribah, as in the day of Massah in the wilderness,

95:9 when your fathers tempted me, tested me, and saw my work.

95:10 Forty long years I was grieved with that generation, and said, "It is a people that errs in their heart. They have not known my ways."

95:11 Therefore I swore in my wrath, "They won't enter into my rest."
