5 For Jehovah is good; his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever, And his faithfulness unto all generations. Psalm 101 A Psalm of David.
O give thanks unto Jehovah; For he is good; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever.
Praise ye Jehovah. Oh give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; For his lovingkindness `endureth' forever.
the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that say, Give thanks to Jehovah of hosts, for Jehovah is good, for his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever; `and of them' that bring `sacrifices of' thanksgiving into the house of Jehovah. For I will cause the captivity of the land to return as at the first, saith Jehovah.
Oh give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever. Oh give thanks unto the God of gods; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever. Oh give thanks unto the Lord of lords; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever: To him who alone doeth great wonders; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever: To him that by understanding made the heavens; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever: To him that spread forth the earth above the waters; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever: To him that made great lights; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever: The sun to rule by day; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever; The moon and stars to rule by night; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever: To him that smote Egypt in their first-born; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever; And brought out Israel from among them; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever; With a strong hand, and with an outstretched arm; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever: To him that divided the Red Sea in sunder; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever; And made Israel to pass through the midst of it; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever; But overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the Red Sea; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever: To him that led his people through the wilderness; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever: To him that smote great kings; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever; And slew famous kings; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever: Sihon king of the Amorites; For his lovingkindness `endureth' forever; And Og king of Bashan; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever; And gave their land for a heritage; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever; Even a heritage unto Israel his servant; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever: Who remembered us in our low estate; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever; And hath delivered us from our adversaries; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever: Who giveth food to all flesh; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever. Oh give thanks unto the God of heaven; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever.
Oh give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; For his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever. Let Israel now say, That his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever. Let the house of Aaron now say, That his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever. Let them now that fear Jehovah say, That his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever.
Thou art good, and doest good; Teach me thy statutes.
And his mercy is unto generations and generations On them that fear him.
For when God made promise to Abraham, since he could swear by none greater, he sware by himself, saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee. And thus, having patiently endured, he obtained the promise. For men swear by the greater: and in every dispute of theirs the oath is final for confirmation. Wherein God, being minded to show more abundantly unto the heirs of the promise the immutability of his counsel, interposed with an oath; that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we may have a strong encouragement, who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before us:
For I say that Christ hath been made a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, that he might confirm the promises `given' unto the fathers, and that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy; as it is written, Therefore will I give praise unto thee among the Gentiles, And sing unto thy name.
And Jehovah passed by before him, and proclaimed, Jehovah, Jehovah, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness and truth, keeping lovingkindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin; and that will by no means clear `the guilty', visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, upon the third and upon the fourth generation.
Thus saith Jehovah: If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, so that there shall not be day and night in their season; then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he shall not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers.
Thy faithfulness is unto all generations: Thou hast established the earth, and it abideth. They abide this day according to thine ordinances; For all things are thy servants.
But the lovingkindness of Jehovah is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, And his righteousness unto children's children;
I will sing of the lovingkindness of Jehovah for ever: With my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations. For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever; Thy faithfulness wilt thou establish in the very heavens.
Why boastest thou thyself in mischief, O mighty man? The lovingkindness of God `endureth' continually.
And they sang one to another in praising and giving thanks unto Jehovah, `saying', For he is good, for his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever toward Israel. And all the people shouted with a great shout, when they praised Jehovah, because the foundation of the house of Jehovah was laid.
it came to pass, when the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking Jehovah; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised Jehovah, `saying', For he is good; for his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever; that then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of Jehovah,

Commentary on Psalms 100 Matthew Henry Commentary
Psalm 100
It is with good reason that many sing this psalm very frequently in their religious assemblies, for it is very proper both to express and to excite pious and devout affections towards God in our approach to him in holy ordinances; and, if our hearts go along with the words, we shall make melody in it to the Lord. The Jews say it was penned to be sung with their thank-offerings; perhaps it was; but we say that as there is nothing in it peculiar to their economy so its beginning with a call to all lands to praise God plainly extends it to the gospel-church. Here,
These are plain and common things, and therefore the more fit to be the matter of devotion.
A psalm of praise.
