Psalm 99

Praise to the LORD for His Fidelity to Israel.

1 The LORD reigns, let the peoples tremble;
He is enthroned above the cherubim, let the earth shake!

2 The LORD is great in Zion,
And He is exalted above all the peoples.

3 Let them praise Your great and awesome name;
Holy is He.

4 The strength of the King loves tjustice;
You have established equity;
You have executed justice and righteousness in Jacob.

5 Exalt the LORD our God
And worship at His footstool;
Holy is He.

6 Moses and Aaron were among His priests,
And Samuel was among those who called on His name;
They called upon the LORD and He answered them.

7 He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud;
They kept His testimonies
And the statute that He gave them.

8 O LORD our God, You answered them;
You were a forgiving God to them,
And yet an avenger of their evil deeds.

9 Exalt the LORD our God
And worship at His holy hill,
For holy is the LORD our God.

Psalm 100

All Men Exhorted to Praise God.

A Psalm for Thanksgiving.

1 Shout joyfully to the LORD, all the earth.

2 Serve the LORD with gladness;
Come before Him with joyful singing.

3 Know that the LORD Himself is God;
It is He who has made us, and tnot we ourselves;
We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.

4 Enter His gates with thanksgiving
And His courts with praise.
Give thanks to Him, bless His name.

5 For the LORD is good;
His lovingkindness is everlasting
And His faithfulness to all generations.

Psalm 101

The Psalmist's Profession of Uprightness.

A Psalm of David.

1 I will sing of lovingkindness and justice,
To You, O LORD, I will sing praises.

2 I will give heed to the tblameless way.
When will You come to me?
I will walk within my house in the integrity of my heart.

3 I will set no worthless thing before my eyes;
I hate the work of those who fall away;
It shall not fasten its grip on me.

4 A perverse heart shall depart from me;
I will know no evil.

5 Whoever secretly slanders his neighbor, him I will destroy;
No one who has a haughty look and an arrogant heart will I endure.

6 My eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me;
He who walks in a tblameless way is the one who will minister to me.

7 He who practices deceit shall not dwell within my house;
He who speaks falsehood shall not maintain his position before me.

8 Every morning I will tdestroy all the wicked of the land,
So as to cut off from the city of the LORD all those who do iniquity.
