Psalm 95

Darby Translation · 11 verses

1Come, let us sing aloud to Jehovah, let us shout for joy to the rock of our salvation;2Let us come before his face with thanksgiving; let us shout aloud unto him with psalms.3For Jehovah is a great God, and a great king above all gods.4In his hand are the deep places of the earth; the heights of the mountains are his also:5The sea is his, and he made it, and his hands formed the dry [land].6Come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before Jehovah our Maker.7For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand. To-day if ye hear his voice,8Harden not your heart, as at Meribah, as [in] the day of Massah, in the wilderness;9When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.10Forty years was I grieved with the generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways;11So that I swore in mine anger, that they should not enter into my rest.

Darby's Synopsis

Psalm 95 summons Israel to come with joyful songs and thanksgiving before Jehovah (verses 3, 4 describing His excellency above the gods and as Creator). But Jehovah is Israel's Maker, his God also; and now they may look for rest even after so long time and continued failure.
