Psalms 99

1 Jehovah reigneth; let the peoples tremble: He sitteth [above] the cherubim; let the earth be moved.

The LORD reigneth, let the nations tremble! He sitteth between the cherubs, let the earth quake!

2 Jehovah is great in Zion; And he is high above all the peoples.

Great is the LORD upon Zion; He is exalted over all the nations.

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

Let men praise thy great and terrible name! It is holy.

4 The king’s strength also loveth justice; Thou dost establish equity; Thou executest justice and righteousness in Jacob.

Let them declare the glory of the King who loveth justice! Thou hast established equity; Thou dost execute justice in Jacob!

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

Exalt ye Jehovah, our God, And bow yourselves down at his footstool! He is holy.

6 Moses and Aaron among his priests, And Samuel among them that call upon his name; They called upon Jehovah, and he answered them.

Moses and Aaron, with his priests, And Samuel, who called upon his name, —They called upon the LORD, and he answered them.

7 He spake unto them in the pillar of cloud: They kept his testimonies, And the statute that he gave them.

He spake to them in the cloudy pillar; They kept his commandments, And the ordinances which he gave them.

8 Thou answeredst them, O Jehovah our God: Thou wast a God that forgavest them, Though thou tookest vengeance of their doings.

Thou, O LORD, our God! didst answer them; Thou wast to them a forgiving God, Though thou didst punish their transgressions!

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

Exalt the LORD, our God. And worship at his holy mountain! For the LORD, our God, is holy.
