| 1 | The Praise of a Canticle, of David himself. Come, let us exult in the Lord. Let us shout joyfully to God, our Savior. |
| 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. |
