Mezmurlar 94

¹Davut'un ezgi övgüsü. Gelin, Rab'be sevinçle coşalım; kurtarıcımız olan Tanrı'ya sevinç çığlıkları atalım.

²Şükranla O'nun huzuruna çıkalım ve O'nu mezmurlarla sevinç çığlıkları atarak yüceltelim.

³Çünkü Rab büyük bir Tanrı'dır ve tüm yeryüzü üzerinde büyük bir Kraldır.

⁴Çünkü yeryüzünün sınırları O'nun elindedir ve dağların dorukları da O'nundur.

⁵Deniz O'nundur, çünkü kendisi yarattı onu; karayı da O'nun elleri şekillendirdi.

⁶Gelin, tapınalım ve yere kapanalım O'na; bizi yaratan Rab'bin önünde gözyaşı dökelim.

⁷Çünkü O bizim Tanrımızdır; bizler O'nun otlağının halkı ve elinin koyunlarıyız.

⁸Bugün O'nun sesini işitirseniz, çölde sınama gününde, o başkaldırı gününde olduğu gibi yüreklerinizi katılaştırmayın.

⁹Orada atalarınız beni sınadılar, beni denediler ve işlerimi gördüler.

¹⁰Kırk yıl o kuşaktan tiksindim ve şöyle dedim: "Yüreklerinde hep sapıyorlar ve onlar yollarımı bilmediler."

¹¹Öfkemle ant içtim: "Onlar asla benim dinlenme yerime girmeyecekler."

¹Αἶνος ᾠδῆς τῷ Δαυΐδ. - ΔΕΥΤΕ ἀγαλλιασώμεθα τῷ Κυρίῳ, ἀλαλάξωμεν τῷ Θεῷ τῷ Σωτῆρι ἡμῶν·

²προφθάσωμεν τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἐν ἐξομολογήσει καὶ ἐν ψαλμοῖς ἀλαλάξωμεν αὐτῷ.

³ὅτι Θεὸς μέγας Κύριος καὶ Βασιλεὺς μέγας ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν·

⁴ὅτι ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ τὰ πέρατα τῆς γῆς, καὶ τὰ ὕψη τῶν ὀρέων αὐτοῦ εἰσιν·

⁵ὅτι αὐτοῦ ἐστιν ἡ θάλασσα, καὶ αὐτὸς ἐποίησεν αὐτήν, καὶ τὴν ξηρὰν αἱ χεῖρες αὐτοῦ ἔπλασαν.

⁶δεῦτε προσκυνήσωμεν καὶ προσπέσωμεν αὐτῷ καὶ κλαύσωμεν ἐναντίον Κυρίου, τοῦ ποιήσαντος ἡμᾶς·

⁷ὅτι αὐτός ἐστιν ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν, καὶ ἡμεῖς λαὸς νομῆς αὐτοῦ καὶ πρόβατα χειρὸς αὐτοῦ.

⁸σήμερον, ἐὰν τῆς φωνῆς αὐτοῦ ἀκούσητε, μὴ σκληρύνητε τὰς καρδίας ὑμῶν, ὡς ἐν τῷ παραπικρασμῷ κατὰ τὴν ἡμέραν τοῦ πειρασμοῦ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ,

⁹οὗ ἐπείρασάν με οἱ πατέρες ὑμῶν, ἐδοκίμασάν με καὶ εἶδον τὰ ἔργα μου.

¹⁰τεσσαράκοντα ἔτη προσώχθισα τῇ γενεᾷ ἐκείνῃ καὶ εἶπα· ἀεὶ πλανῶνται τῇ καρδίᾳ, αὐτοὶ δὲ οὐκ ἔγνωσαν τὰς ὁδούς μου,

¹¹ὡς ὤμοσα ἐν τῇ ὀργῇ μου· εἰ εἰσελεύσονται εἰς τὴν κατάπαυσίν μου.

¹[The praise of a Song by David.] Come, let us exult in the Lord; let us make a joyful noise to God our Saviour.

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 over all gods: for the Lord will not cast off his people.

⁴For the ends of the earth are in his hands; and the heights of the mountains are his.

⁵For the sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.

⁶Come, let us worship and fall down before him; and weep before the Lord that made us.

⁷For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand.

⁸To-day, if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, according to the day of irritation in the wilderness:

⁹where your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works.

¹⁰Forty years was I grieved with this generation, and said, They do always err in their heart, and they have not known my ways.

¹¹So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.
