תהילים צה

Come, let us sing joyously to GOD,
raise a shout for our rock and deliverer;

let us come into the divine presence with praise;
let us shout out in song!

For the ETERNAL is a great God,
the great ruler of all divine beings.

In God’s hand are the depths of the earth;
the peaks of the mountains are God’s.

The sea is God’s—the One who made it;
and the land, fashioned by God’s hands.

Come, let us bow down and kneel,
bend the knee before the ETERNAL our maker,

for this One is our God,
and we are the people being cared for—the tended flock.
O, if you would but heed God’s charge this day:

Do not be stubborn as at Meribah,
as on the day of Massah, in the wilderness,

when your ancestors put Me to the test,
tried Me, though they had seen My deeds.

Forty years I was provoked by that generation;
I thought, “They are a senseless people;
they would not know My ways.”

Concerning them I swore in anger,
“They shall never come to My resting-place!”
