Psalm 95 – 96 (EHV)



See series: Through My Bible

¹ Come, let us sing joyfully to the Lord.

Let us give a loud shout to the Rock who saves us.

² Let us approach his presence with thanksgiving.

With music we will shout to him.

³ For the Lord is the great God

and the great King above all gods.

⁴ He holds the unexplored places of the earth in his hand,

and the peaks of the mountains belong to him.

⁵ The sea belongs to him, for he made it,

and his hands formed the dry land.

⁶ Come, let us bow down. Let us revere him.

Let us kneel before the Lord our Maker,

⁷ for he is our God,

and we are the people of his pasture

and the flock in his hand.

Today, if you hear his voice,

⁸ do not harden your hearts as they did at Meribah,

as they did that day at Massah in the wilderness,

⁹ where your fathers challenged me

and tested me though they had seen what I had done.

¹⁰ For forty years I was disgusted with that generation,

and I said, “They are a people who have hearts that stray.

They do not acknowledge my ways.”

¹¹ So I swore in my anger,

“They shall never enter my resting place.”

¹ Sing to the Lord a new song.

Sing to the Lord, all the earth.

² Sing to the Lord. Praise his name.

Proclaim the good news of his salvation from day to day.

³ Tell about his glory among the nations,

about his marvelous deeds among all peoples.

⁴ For great is the Lord and worthy of great praise.

He is to be feared above all gods.

⁵ For all the gods of the peoples are “nothings,” ^[1]

but the Lord made the heavens.

⁶ Splendor and majesty are before him.

Power and beauty are in his sanctuary.

⁷ Ascribe to the Lord, families of peoples,

Ascribe to the Lord glory and power.

⁸ Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name.

Bring a gift and come into his courtyards.

⁹ Bow down to the Lord in the splendor of his holiness. ^[2]

Look away from his face, ^[3] all the earth.

¹⁰ Say among the nations, “The Lord reigns.”

The world is firmly established.

It will not be moved.

He will judge the peoples with fairness.

¹¹ Let the heavens rejoice.

Let the earth celebrate.

Let the sea roar,

and all that fills it.

¹² Let the fields be overjoyed,

and everything that is in them.

Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy

¹³     before the Lord, for he comes,

    for he comes to judge the earth.

He will judge the world in righteousness

and the peoples in his faithfulness.
