Psalms 95
1A Canticle of David himself, when the house was built after the captivity. Sing to the Lord a new song. Sing to the Lord, all the earth.
2Sing to the Lord and bless his name. Announce his salvation from day to day.
3Announce his glory among the Gentiles, his miracles among all peoples.
4For the Lord is great and greatly to be praised. He is terrible, beyond all gods.
5For all the gods of the Gentiles are demons, but the Lord made the heavens.
6Confession and beauty are in his sight. Sanctity and magnificence are in his sanctuary.
7Bring to the Lord, you natives of the nations, bring to the Lord glory and honor.
8Bring to the Lord glory for his name. Lift up sacrifices, and enter into his courts.
9Adore the Lord in his holy court. Let the entire earth be shaken before his face.
10Say among the Gentiles: The Lord has reigned. For he has even corrected the whole world, which will not be shaken. He will judge the peoples with fairness.
11Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth exult; let the sea and all its fullness be moved.
12The fields and all the things that are in them will be glad. Then all the trees of the forest will rejoice
13before the face of the Lord: for he arrives. For he arrives to judge the earth. He will judge the whole world with fairness and the peoples with his truth.
Psalms 95
1O come, let us sing unto the Lord: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation.
2Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.
3For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods.
4In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is his also.
5The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.
6O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the Lord 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 will hear his voice,
8Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness:
9When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.
10Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways:
11Unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest.
