¹ A Psalm of Thanksgiving. Shout joyfully to the LORD, all the earth.

² Serve the LORD with gladness and delight; Come before His presence with joyful singing.

³ Know and fully recognize with gratitude that the LORD Himself is God; It is He who has made us,[1] not we ourselves [and we are His]. We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.

⁴ Enter His gates with a song of thanksgiving And His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, bless and praise His name.

⁵ For the LORD is good; His mercy and lovingkindness are everlasting, His faithfulness [endures] to all generations.

⁶ A Psalm of David. I will sing of [steadfast] lovingkindness and justice; To You, O LORD, I will sing praises.

⁷ I will behave wisely and follow the way of integrity. When will You come to me? I will walk in my house in integrity and with a blameless heart.

⁸ I will set no worthless or wicked thing before my eyes. I hate the practice of those who fall away [from the right path]; It will not grasp hold of me.

⁹ A perverse heart shall depart from me; I will not tolerate evil.

¹⁰ Whoever secretly slanders his neighbor, him I will silence; The one who has a haughty look and a proud (arrogant) heart I will not tolerate.

¹¹ My eyes will be on the faithful (honorable) of the land, that they may dwell with me; He who walks blamelessly is the one who will minister to and serve me.

¹² He who practices deceit will not dwell in my house; He who tells lies and half-truths will not continue [to remain] in my presence.

¹³ Morning after morning I will destroy all the wicked in the land, That I may cut off from the city of the LORD all those who do evil.
