⁵The sea is his, for he made it,
   and the dry land, which his hands have formed.

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.

O that today you would listen to his voice!
⁸   Do not harden your hearts, as at Meribah,
   as on the day at Massah in the wilderness,
⁹when your ancestors tested me,
   and put me to the proof, though they had seen my work.
¹⁰For forty years I loathed that generation
   and said, ‘They are a people whose hearts go astray,
   and they do not regard my ways.’
¹¹Therefore in my anger I swore,
   ‘They shall not enter my rest.’
