Psalms

 2 Let us come into his presence* with thanksgiving;+

Let us sing and shout in triumph to him.

 3 For Jehovah is a great God,

A great King over all other gods.+

 4 In his hand are the depths of the earth;

The mountain peaks belong to him.+

 5 The sea, which he made, belongs to him,+

And his hands formed the dry land.+

 6 Come, let us worship and bow down;

Let us kneel before Jehovah our Maker.+

 7 For he is our God,

And we are the people of his pasture,

The sheep in his care.*+

Today if you listen to his voice,+

 8 Do not harden your heart as at Merʹi·bah,*+

As in the day of Masʹsah* in the wilderness,+

 9 When your forefathers tested me;+

They challenged me, though they had seen my works.+

“They are a people who always go astray in their hearts;

They have not come to know my ways.”
