Context of Psalms 95:6
4In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is his also. 5The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land. O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before Yhwh our maker. 7For 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, 8Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness:

- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 6O come, let us worship and bow down - Let us worship him by bowing down; by prostrating ourselves before him.
