Context of Psalms 95:7
5The sea is His—He made it, and His hands formed the dry land. 6Come, let us worship and bow down. Let us kneel before Adonai our Maker. For He is our God, and we are the people of His pasture, the flock of His hand. Today, if you hear His voice: 8“Do not harden your heart as at Meribah, as in the day of Massah in the wilderness, 9when your fathers tested Me, they challenged Me, even though they had seen My work.
