Come, let us worship in song, a joyful offering to the Eternal. Shout! Shout with joy to the rock of our liberation.2 Come face-to-face with God, and give thanks; with loud and joyful voices, praise Him in songs.3 For the Eternal is a great God, and a great King, supreme over all gods.4 Within His control are the very depths of the earth; the mountaintops too—they all belong to Him.5 The sea belongs to Him, for He created it—scooped and filled it— with His hands He made the dry land—every valley and mountain. 6 Come, let us worship Him. Everyone bow down;
kneel before the Eternal who made us.
7 For He is our God
and we are His people, the flock of His pasture,
His sheep protected and nurtured by His hand. Today, if He speaks, hear His voice.
8 “Don’t harden your hearts the way they did in the bitter uprising at Meribah
or like that day they complained in the wilderness of Massah.
9 Your ancestors tested Me,
wanted Me to prove Myself though they had seen that nothing was too great for Me.
10 For 40 years I despised that grumbling generation
and said, ‘Their hearts are unfaithful;
they no longer walk in My ways; though I call, they do not listen to My voice.’
11 That is why in My anger I swore,
‘They will never enter into My rest.’” |
