1A Psalm for giving thanks. Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth! (Ps 50:14; Ps 66:1)2Serve the Lord with gladness! Come into his presence with singing! (Ps 2:11; Ps 95:2)3Know that the Lord, he is God! It is he who made us, and we are his;[1] we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. (1Ki 18:39; Job 10:3; Job 10:8; Ps 74:1; Ps 95:6; Isa 43:1; Eze 34:30)4Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name! (Ps 66:13; Ps 96:2; Ps 96:8)5For the Lord is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations. (2Ch 5:13; Ezr 3:11; Ps 25:8; Ps 36:5; Ps 106:1; Ps 119:68; Jer 33:11; Na 1:7)
