A psalm of thanksgiving
“Make a joyful noise to Yahweh!
All the earth!
Worship Yahweh with gladness!
Come into his presence with singing!”
Psalm 100 is like the doxology or ending of the psalms about the kingship of Yahweh. It clearly is a thanksgiving psalm as the title indicates. We are asked to praise Yahweh. Everyone should make a joyful noise as they worship Yahweh with gladness. They are to come into his presence singing.
“Make a joyful noise to Yahweh!
All the earth!
Break forth into joyous song!
Sing praises!
Sing praises to Yahweh
With the lyre!
Sing praises to Yahweh
With the sound of melody!
With trumpets
Make a joyful noise before the King!
The sound of the horn should
Make a joyful noise before the King!
Yahweh!”
All the earth should make a joyful noise to Yahweh. Everyone should sing melodic praises to Yahweh on the lyre. They should sound the trumpets and make a joyful noise before King Yahweh.
