< Psalms 100 >
1 Everyone in the world should shout joyfully to Yahweh!
A Psalm of Confession.
2 We should worship Yahweh gladly! We should come before him singing joyful songs.
Shout joyfully to God, all the earth. Serve the Lord with rejoicing. Enter into his sight in exultation.
3 We should acknowledge/recognize that Yahweh is God; it is he who made us, [so] we belong to him. We are the people that he takes care of [MET]; we are [like] sheep that are cared for by their shepherd.
Know that the Lord himself is God. He made us, and we ourselves did not. We are his people and the sheep of his pasture.
4 Enter the gates [of his temple] thanking him; enter the courtyard [of the temple] singing songs to praise him! Thank him and praise him,
Enter his gates with confession, his courts with hymns, and acknowledge him. Praise his name.
5 because Yahweh always [does] good [things for us]. He faithfully loves us, and (is faithful/is loyal to us forever/will never forsake us).
For the Lord is sweet, his mercy is in eternity, and his truth is from generation to generation.
