In this beautiful and beloved kapitel, Mizmor L'Sodah, Dovid HaMelech calls upon the entire world to serve Hashem with joy and to come before Him with songs of praise. We are reminded that Hashem is our Creator, and we are His cherished nation, the sheep of His pasture whom He watches over with endless love. We are inspired to enter His gates with thanksgiving and gratitude, recognizing that Hashem is forever good and His kindness and faithfulness endure for all generations.
מִזְמוֹר לְתוֹדָה הָרִיעוּ לַיהוָה כָּל־הָאָרֶץ׃
עִבְדוּ אֶת־יְהוָה בְּשִׂמְחָה בֹּאוּ לְפָנָיו בִּרְנָנָה׃
דְּעוּ כִּי־יְהוָה הוּא אֱלֹהִים הוּא־עָשָׂנוּ ולא [וְלוֹ] אֲנַחְנוּ עַמּוֹ וְצֹאן מַרְעִיתוֹ׃
בֹּאוּ שְׁעָרָיו בְּתוֹדָה חֲצֵרֹתָיו בִּתְהִלָּה הוֹדוּ־לוֹ בָּרֲכוּ שְׁמוֹ׃
כִּי־טוֹב יְהֹוָה לְעוֹלָם חַסְדּוֹ וְעַד־דֹּר וָדֹר אֱמוּנָתוֹ׃
