Psalms 99

1 The LORD reigns; let the nations tremble! He is enthroned above the cherubim; let the earth quake!

A psalm for David himself. The Lord hath reigned, let the people be angry: he that sitteth on the cherubims: let the earth be moved.

2 Great is the LORD in Zion; He is exalted above all the peoples.

The Lord is great in Sion, and high above all people.

3 Let them praise Your great and awesome name— He is holy!

Let them give praise to thy great name: for it is terrible and holy:

4 The mighty King loves justice. You have established equity; You have exercised justice and righteousness in Jacob.

And the king’s honour loveth judgment. Thou hast prepared directions: thou hast done judgment and justice in Jacob.

5 Exalt the LORD our God, and worship at His footstool; He is holy!

Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore his footstool, for it is holy.

6 Moses and Aaron were among His priests; Samuel was among those who called on His name. They called to the LORD and He answered.

Moses and Aaron among his priests: and Samuel among them that call upon his name. They called upon the Lord, and he heard them:

7 He spoke to them from the pillar of cloud; they kept His decrees and the statutes He gave them.

He spoke to them in the pillar of the cloud. They kept his testimonies, and the commandment which he gave them.

8 O LORD our God, You answered them. You were a forgiving God to them, yet an avenger of their misdeeds.

Thou didst hear them, O Lord our God: thou wast a merciful God to them, and taking vengeance on all their inventions.

9 Exalt the LORD our God and worship at His holy mountain, for the LORD our God is holy.

Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore at his holy mountain: for the Lord our God is holy.
