Psalm 100

A Song of Praise for the Lord’s Faithfulness to His People

(A)A Psalm of Thanksgiving.

100 Make (B)a joyful shout to the Lord, [a]all you lands!
Serve the Lord with gladness;
Come before His presence with singing.
Know that the Lord, He is God;
(C)It is He who has made us, and [b]not we ourselves;
(D)We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.

(E)Enter into His gates with thanksgiving,
And into His courts with praise.
Be thankful to Him, and bless His name.
For the Lord is good;
(F)His mercy is everlasting,
And His truth endures to all generations.

Exodus 4:27-31

27 And the Lord said to Aaron, “Go into the wilderness (A)to meet Moses.” So he went and met him on (B)the mountain of God, and kissed him. 28 So Moses (C)told Aaron all the words of the Lord who had sent him, and all the (D)signs which He had commanded him. 29 Then Moses and Aaron (E)went and gathered together all the elders of the children of Israel. 30 (F)And Aaron spoke all the words which the Lord had spoken to Moses. Then he did the signs in the sight of the people. 31 So the people (G)believed; and when they heard that the Lord had (H)visited the children of Israel and that He (I)had looked on their affliction, then (J)they bowed their heads and worshiped.

Acts 7:35-43

35 “This Moses whom they rejected, saying, (A)‘Who made you a ruler and a judge?’ is the one God sent to be a ruler and a deliverer (B)by the hand of the Angel who appeared to him in the bush. 36 (C)He brought them out, after he had (D)shown wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, (E)and in the Red Sea, (F)and in the wilderness forty years.

Israel Rebels Against God

37 “This is that Moses who said to the children of Israel, (G)‘The Lord your God will raise up for you a Prophet like me from your brethren. (H)Him[a] you shall hear.’

38 (I)“This is he who was in the [b]congregation in the wilderness with (J)the Angel who spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers, (K)the one who received the living (L)oracles[c] to give to us, 39 whom our fathers (M)would not obey, but rejected. And in their hearts they turned back to Egypt, 40 (N)saying to Aaron, ‘Make us gods to go before us; as for this Moses who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.’ 41 (O)And they made a calf in those days, offered sacrifices to the idol, and (P)rejoiced in the works of their own hands. 42 Then (Q)God turned and gave them up to worship (R)the host of heaven, as it is written in the book of the Prophets:

(S)‘Did you offer Me slaughtered animals and sacrifices during forty years in the wilderness,
O house of Israel?
43 You also took up the tabernacle of Moloch,
And the star of your god Remphan,
Images which you made to worship;
And (T)I will carry you away beyond Babylon.’
