Psalms 95
An invitation to worship with joy, kneeling before God our Maker. But it warns: do not harden your hearts as Israel did at Meribah and Massah. Hebrews quotes this psalm extensively as a warning against unbelief.
Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD; let us shout to the Rock of our salvation!
Let us enter His presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to Him in song.
For the LORD is a great God, a great King above all gods.
In His hand are the depths of the earth, and the mountain peaks belong to Him.
The sea is His, for He made it, and His hands formed the dry land.
O come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the LORD our Maker.
For He is our God, and we are the people of His pasture, the sheep under His care. Today, if you hear His voice,
Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts
“Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: “Today, if you hear His voice,”
Read Hebrews 3:7 ›Today, if you hear his voice — repeated warning in Hebrews
“As it has been said: “Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts, as you did in the rebellion.””
Read Hebrews 3:15 ›'Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts.' A worship psalm becomes a warning — every day is an invitation to respond to God's voice.
“Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: “Today, if you hear His voice,”
Read Hebrews 3:7 ›do not harden your hearts as you did at Meribah, in the day at Massah in the wilderness,
Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion
“do not harden your hearts, as you did in the rebellion, in the day of testing in the wilderness,”
Read Hebrews 3:8 ›where your fathers tested and tried Me, though they had seen My work.
Where your ancestors tested and tried me
“where your fathers tested and tried Me, and for forty years saw My works.”
Read Hebrews 3:9 ›For forty years I was angry with that generation, and I said, “They are a people whose hearts go astray, and they have not known My ways.”
Their hearts are always going astray; they have not known my ways
“Therefore I was angry with that generation, and I said, ‘Their hearts are always going astray, and they have not known My ways.’”
Read Hebrews 3:10 ›So I swore on oath in My anger, “They shall never enter My rest.”
They shall never enter my rest
“Now we who have believed enter that rest. As for the others, it is just as God has said: “So I swore on oath in My anger, ‘They shall never enter My rest.’” And yet His works have been finished since the foundation of the world.”
