Psalms 95:6

O come, let us worship - Three distinct words are used here to express three different acts of adoration:

1.Let us worship, nishtachaveh , let us prostrate ourselves; the highest act of adoration by which the supremacy of God is acknowledged.

2.Let us bow down, nichraah , let us crouch or cower down, bending the legs under, as a dog in the presence of his master, which solicitously waits to receive his commands.

3.Let us kneel, nibrachah , let us put our knees to the ground, and thus put ourselves in the posture of those who supplicate.

And let us consider that all this should be done in the presence of Him who is Jehovah our Creator.
