2Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise to him with psalms.

3For the LORD is a great God and a great King above all gods.

4In his hand are the foundations 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. Today if you 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 that generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways,

11Unto whom I swore in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest.
