Admonition to Praise Jehovah and Hear His Word.
By comparing verse 8 of this psalm with Hebrews 4:7, we find that it should be ascribed to David, either written by him personally or by one of his singers.
Psalms 95:1-11
1 O come, let us sing unto the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation.
2 Let us comea before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.
3 For the LORD is a great God, and 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.
5 The seab is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.
6 O 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,
8 Harden not your heart, as in the provocation,c and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness:
9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.
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:
11 Unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest.
