New Living Translation NLT
1 O come, let us sing unto the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation.
1
Come, let us sing to the LORD ! Let us shout joyfully to the Rock of our salvation.
2 Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.
2
Let us come to him with thanksgiving. Let us sing psalms of praise to him.
3 For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods.
3
For the LORD is a great God, a great King above all gods.
4 In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is his also.
4
He holds in his hands the depths of the earth and the mightiest mountains.
5 The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.
5
The sea belongs to him, for he made it. His hands formed the dry land, too.
6 O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker.
6
Come, let us worship and bow down. Let us kneel before the LORD our maker,
7 For 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,
7
for he is our God. We are the people he watches over, the flock under his care. If only you would listen to his voice today!
8 Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness:
8
The LORD says, “Don’t harden your hearts as Israel did at Meribah, as they did at Massah in the wilderness.
9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.
9
For there your ancestors tested and tried my patience, even though they saw everything I did.
10 Forty 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:
10
For forty years I was angry with them, and I said, ‘They are a people whose hearts turn away from me. They refuse to do what I tell them.’
11 Unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest.
11
So in my anger I took an oath: ‘They will never enter my place of rest.’”
