Psalm 95
Venite, exultemus
1
O come, let us sing unto the Lord; *
let us heartily rejoice in the strength of our salvation.
2
Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving *
and show ourselves glad in him with psalms.
3
For the Lord is a great God *
and a great King above all gods.
4
In his hand are all the depths of the earth *
and the heights of the hills are his also.
5
The sea is his, for he made it, *
and his hands prepared the dry land.
6
O come, let us worship and fall down, *
and kneel before the Lord our Maker.
7
For he is our God, *
and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand.
8
Today, if you will hear his voice, harden not your hearts *
as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness,
9
When your fathers tested me, *
and put me to the proof, though they had seen my works.
10
Forty years long was I grieved with this generation and said, *
“It is a people that err in their hearts, for they have not known my ways,”
11
Of whom I swore in my wrath *
that they should not enter into my rest.
