Psalms 95 Comparison: Geneva Bible 1599 vs King James Version
Psalms 95
1Come, let vs reioyce vnto the Lord: let vs sing aloude vnto the rocke of our saluation.
2Let vs come before his face with praise: let vs sing loude vnto him with Psalmes.
3For the Lord is a great God, and a great King aboue all gods.
4In whose hande are the deepe places of the earth, and the heightes of the mountaines are his:
5To whome the Sea belongeth: for hee made it, and his handes formed the dry land.
6Come, let vs worship and fall downe, and kneele before the Lord our maker.
7For he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheepe of his hande: to day, if ye will heare his voyce,
8Harden not your heart, as in Meribah, and as in the day of Massah in the wildernesse.
9Where your fathers tempted me, proued me, though they had seene my worke.
10Fourtie yeeres haue I contended with this generation, and said, They are a people that erre in heart, for they haue not knowen my wayes.
11Wherefore I sware in my wrath, saying, Surely they shall not enter into my rest.
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.
