Psalms 99

1 Jehovah reigns! Let the peoples tremble. He sits above the cherubim, let the earth be moved.

The Lord reigneth; people tremble: he sitteth enthroned over the cherubim; the earth is moved.

2 Jehovah is great in Zion, and he is high above all the peoples.

The Lord is great in Zion; and he is exalted above all the people.

3 Let them praise thy great and awesome name. Holy is he.

They will give thanks to thy name, great, and terrible, [and] holy it is.

4 The king's strength also loves justice. Thou establish equity. Thou execute justice and righteousness in Jacob.

And to the power of the king who loveth justice and righteousness hast thou truly executed in Jacob.

5 Exalt ye Jehovah our God, and worship at his footstool. Holy is he.

Exalt ye the Lord our God, and bow yourselves down before his footstool: he is holy.—

6 Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among those who call upon his name, they called upon Jehovah, and he answered them.

Moses and Aaron were among his priests, and Samuel among those that call on his name; they called on the Lord, and he answered them.

7 He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud. They kept his testimonies, and the statute that he gave them.

In the pillar of cloud he used to speak unto them: they kept his testimonies, and the statutes which he had given unto them.

8 Thou answered them, O Jehovah our God. Thou were a God who forgave them, though thou took vengeance on their doings.

O Lord, our God, thou didst answer them: thou wast a forgiving God unto them, yet also an avenger for their wrong doings.

9 Exalt ye Jehovah our God, and worship at his holy hill. For Jehovah our God is holy.

Exalt the Lord our God, and bow yourselves down before his holy mount; for holy is the Lord our God.
