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

Call out with joy to the Lord, all the earth.

2 S erve Jehovah with joy, come before him with singing.

Be glad as you serve the Lord. Come before Him with songs of joy.

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

Know that the Lord is God. It is He Who made us, and not we ourselves. We are His people and the sheep of His field.

4 E nter ye His gates with thanksgiving, His courts with praise, Give ye thanks to Him, bless ye His Name.

Go into His gates giving thanks and into His holy place with praise. Give thanks to Him. Honor His name.

5 F or good Jehovah, to the age His kindness, And to generation and generation His faithfulness!

For the Lord is good. His loving-kindness lasts forever. And He is faithful to all people and to all their children-to-come.
