1 M ake a joyful noise to the Lord, all you lands!

A Psalm of Thanksgiving. Shout to Jehovah, all the earth.

2 S erve the Lord with gladness! Come before His presence with singing!

Serve Jehovah with joy, come before him with singing.

3 K now (perceive, recognize, and understand with approval) that the Lord is God! It is He Who has made us, not we ourselves! We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.

Know that Jehovah He God, He made us, and we are His, His people -- and the flock of His pasture.

4 E nter into His gates with thanksgiving and a thank offering and into His courts with praise! Be thankful and say so to Him, bless and affectionately praise His name!

Enter ye His gates with thanksgiving, His courts with praise, Give ye thanks to Him, bless ye His Name.

5 F or the Lord is good; His mercy and loving-kindness are everlasting, His faithfulness and truth endure to all generations.

For good Jehovah, to the age His kindness, And to generation and generation His faithfulness!
