95:1  Come, let’s sing for joy to the Lord. Let’s shout praises to the Rock [28:1; 42:9; 62:2; Deut. 32:4] who ·saves us [gives us victory].
95:2  Let’s ·come [present ourselves] to him with ·thanksgiving [praise]. Let’s ·sing songs [shout psalms] to him,
95:3  because the Lord is the great God, the great King over all gods [Ex. 15:11].
95:4  The deepest places on earth are ·his [L in his hand], and the ·highest [peaks of the] mountains belong to him.
95:5  The sea is his because he made it, and he created the ·land [dry ground] with his own hands.
95:6  Come, let’s ·worship him [bow down] and ·bow down [bend the knee]. Let’s kneel before the Lord who made us,
95:7  because he is our God and we are the people ·he takes care of [L of his pasture], the sheep ·that he tends [L of his hand; 74:1; 79:13; 100:3; John 10:11–14]. Today listen to ·what he says [L his voice]:
95:8  “Do not ·be stubborn [L harden your heart], as at Meribah [C “contending”; 81:7; 106:32; Ex. 17:1–17; Num. 20:1–13], as that day at Massah [C “testing”] in the ·desert [wilderness; Heb. 4:7].
95:9  There your ·ancestors [fathers] tested me and tried me even though they saw what I did.
95:10  I ·was angry with [felt disgust for] ·those people [L that generation] for forty years. I said, ‘They are ·not loyal to me [L a people whose hearts wander/go astray] and have not understood my ways.’
95:11  I was angry and made a promise, ‘They will never enter my rest.’”
