Psalm 100:1-101:6
New King James Version
A Song of Praise for the Lord’s Faithfulness to His People
(A)A Psalm of Thanksgiving.
100 Make (B)a joyful shout to the Lord, [a]all you lands!
2 Serve the Lord with gladness;
Come before His presence with singing.
3 Know that the Lord, He is God;
(C)It is He who has made us, and [b]not we ourselves;
(D)We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.
4 (E)Enter into His gates with thanksgiving,
And into His courts with praise.
Be thankful to Him, and bless His name.
5 For the Lord is good;
(F)His mercy is everlasting,
And His truth endures to all generations.
Promised Faithfulness to the Lord
A Psalm of David.
101 I will sing of mercy and justice;
To You, O Lord, I will sing praises.
2 I will behave wisely in a [c]perfect way.
Oh, when will You come to me?
I will (G)walk within my house with a perfect heart.
3 I will set nothing [d]wicked before my eyes;
(H)I hate the work of those (I)who fall away;
It shall not cling to me.
4 A perverse heart shall depart from me;
I will not (J)know wickedness.
5 Whoever secretly slanders his neighbor,
Him I will destroy;
(K)The one who has a haughty look and a proud heart,
Him I will not endure.
6 My eyes shall be on the faithful of the land,
That they may dwell with me;
He who walks in a [e]perfect way,
He shall serve me.
