ovocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness;

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

10 Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said:
It is a people that do err in their hearts, for they have not known
my ways;

11 Unto whom I sware in my wrath: that they should not enter into
my rest.

PSALM 96. _Cantate Domino_.

O sing unto the Lord a new song: sing unto the Lord, all the whole
earth.

2 Sing unto the Lord, and praise his Name: be telling of his
salvation from day to day.

3 Declare his honour unto the heathen: and his wonders unto all
people.

4 For the Lord is great, and cannot worthily be praised: he is
more to be feared than all gods.

5 As for all the gods of the heathen, they are but idols: but it
is the Lord that made the heavens.

6 Glory and worship are before him: power and honour are in his
sanctuary.

7 Ascribe unto the Lord, O ye kindreds of the people: ascribe
unto the Lord worship and power.

8 Ascribe unto the Lord the honour due unto his Name: bring
presents, and come into his courts.

9 O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness: let the whole
earth stand in awe of him.

10 Tell it out among the heathen that the Lord is King: and that
it is he who hath made the round world so fast that it cannot be
moved; and how that he shall judge the people righteously.

11 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad: let the sea
make a noise, and all that therein is.

12 Let the field be joyful, and all that is in it: then shall all
the trees of the wood rejoice before the Lord.

13 For he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: and with
righteousness to judge the world, and the people with his truth.

PSALM 97. _Dominus regnavit_.

The Lord is King, the earth may be glad thereof: yea, the multitude
of the isles may be glad thereof.

2 Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and
judgement are the habitation of his seat.

3 There shall go a fire before him: and burn up his enemies on
every side.

4 His lightnings gave shine unto the world: the earth saw it, and
was afraid.

5 The hills melted like wax at the presence of the Lord: at the
presence of the Lord of the whole earth.

6 The heavens have declared his righteousness: and all the people
have seen his glory.

7 Confounded be all they that worship carved images, and that
delight in vain gods: worship him, all ye gods.

8 Sion heard of it,
