The rock of our salvation
(Hebrews 3:7-11)
1
The Praise of a Canticle, of David himself. Come, let us exult in the Lord. Let us shout joyfully to God, our Savior.(a)
2
Let us anticipate his presence with confession, and let us sing joyfully to him with psalms.
3
For the Lord is a great God and a great King over all gods.
4
For in his hand are all the limits of the earth, and the heights of the mountains are his.
5
For the sea is his, and he made it, and his hands formed the dry land.
6
Come, let us adore and fall prostrate, and let us weep before the Lord who made us.
7
For he is the Lord our God, and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand.
8
If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts:
9
as in the provocation, according to the day of temptation in the wilderness, where your fathers tempted me; they tested me, though they had seen my works.
10
For forty years, I was offended by that generation, and I said: These have always strayed in heart.
11
And these have not known my ways. So I swore in my wrath: They shall not enter into my rest.
