< Psalms 99 >
1 The LORD reigns; let the nations tremble! He is enthroned above the cherubim; let the earth quake!
The LORD reigns; let the people tremble: he sits between 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 Zion; and he is high above all the people.
3 Let them praise Your great and awesome name— He is holy!
Let them praise your great and terrible name; for it is holy.
4 The mighty King loves justice. You have established equity; You have exercised justice and righteousness in Jacob.
The king's strength also loves judgment; you do establish equity, you execute judgment and righteousness in Jacob.
5 Exalt the LORD our God, and worship at His footstool; He is holy!
Exalt all of you the LORD our God, and worship at his footstool; for he 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 answered them.
7 He spoke to them from the pillar of cloud; they kept His decrees and the statutes He gave them.
He spoke unto them in the cloudy pillar: they kept his testimonies, and the ordinance that he gave them.
8 O LORD our God, You answered them. You were a forgiving God to them, yet an avenger of their misdeeds.
You answered them, O LORD our God: you were a God that forgave them, though you took vengeance of their inventions.
9 Exalt the LORD our God and worship at His holy mountain, for the LORD our God is holy.
Exalt the LORD our God, and worship at his holy hill; for the LORD our God is holy.
