< Psalms 100 >
1 Everyone in the world should shout joyfully to Yahweh!
A psalm of thanksgiving. Everyone on earth shout for joy to the Lord!
2 We should worship Yahweh gladly! We should come before him singing joyful songs.
Worship the Lord with gladness; come into his presence with joyful songs!
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 is God! He made us, so we belong to him. We are his people, the flock he cares for.
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,
Go in through his gate with thanks; enter his courts with praise. Thank him; praise him for who he is.
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 good. His trustworthy love lasts forever; his faithfulness continues for all generations.
