< Psalms 100 >
1 Everyone in the world should shout joyfully to Yahweh!
A psalm of thanksgiving. Shout joyfully to Yahweh, all the earth.
2 We should worship Yahweh gladly! We should come before him singing joyful songs.
Serve Yahweh with gladness; come before his presence with joyful singing.
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 Yahweh is God; he made us, and we are his. 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 into his gates with thanksgiving and into his courts with praise. Give thanks to him and bless 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 Yahweh is good; his covenant faithfulness endures forever and his truthfulness through all generations.
