Psalms – Chapter 99

Old Testament5 Verses

1A psalm of praise.

2Sing joyfully to God, all the earth: serve ye the Lord with gladness. Come in before his presence with exceeding great joy.

3Know ye that the Lord he is God: he made us, and not we ourselves. We are his people and the sheep of his pasture.

4Go ye into his gates with praise, into his courts with hymns: and give glory to him. Praise ye his name:

5For the Lord is sweet, his mercy endureth for ever, and his truth to generation and generation.

Reflection for Today

Catholic exegesis approaches Psalms Chapter 99 with reverence, seeking both the literal sense and the spiritual meaning ordered to Christ.

Catholic theology recognizes that prayer, praise, and the full range of human emotion before God is not an abstract idea but a reality encountered in prayer, sacraments, and charity. This chapter contributes to that vision by stressing forgiveness and reconciliation.

Let Psalms Chapter 99 deepen your love for the Eucharist, where the Word made flesh continues to feed His people. The same Christ who speaks in Scripture offers Himself sacramentally on the altar.
