4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, Into his courts with praise. Give thanks to him, and bless his name.
I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving, And will call on the name of Yahweh. I will pay my vows to Yahweh, Yes, in the presence of all his people, In the courts of Yahweh's house, In the midst of you, Jerusalem. Praise Yah!
Through him, then, let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips which make confession to his name.
Now therefore, our God, we thank you, and praise your glorious name.
I will come into your temple with burnt offerings. I will pay my vows to you,
> I will exalt you, my God, the King. I will praise your name forever and ever. Every day I will praise you. I will extol your name forever and ever.

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your heart to the Lord. Whatever you do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father, through him.
David said to all the assembly, Now bless Yahweh your God. All the assembly blessed Yahweh, the God of their fathers, and bowed down their heads, and worshiped Yahweh, and the king.
> Praise waits for you, God, in Zion. To you shall vows be performed.
Praise Yahweh, you angels of his, Who are mighty in strength, who fulfill his word, Obeying the voice of his word. Praise Yahweh, all you hosts of his, You servants of his, who do his pleasure. Praise Yahweh, all you works of his, In all places of his dominion. Praise Yahweh, my soul.

PSALM 100
Ps 100:1-5. As closing this series (see on Ps 93:1), this Psalm is a general call on all the earth to render exalted praise to God, the creator, preserver, and benefactor of men.
1, 2. With thankful praise, unite service as the subjects of a king (Ps 2:11, 12).
3. To the obligations of a creature and subject is added that of a beneficiary (Ps 95:7).
4. Join joyfully in His public worship. The terms are, of course, figurative (compare Ps 84:2; 92:13; Isa 66:23).
Enter—or, "Come with solemnity" (Ps 95:6).
5. The reason: God's eternal mercy and truth (Ps 25:8; 89:7).
