< Psalms 99 >
1 The LORD reigns; let the nations tremble! He is enthroned above the cherubim; let the earth quake!
The Lord reigneth; people tremble: he sitteth enthroned over the cherubim; the earth is moved.
2 Great is the LORD in Zion; He is exalted above all the peoples.
The Lord is great in Zion; and he is exalted above all the people.
3 Let them praise Your great and awesome name— He is holy!
They will give thanks to thy name, great, and terrible, [and] holy it is.
4 The mighty King loves justice. You have established equity; You have exercised 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 the LORD our God, and worship at His footstool; He is holy!
Exalt ye the Lord our God, and bow yourselves down before his footstool: 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 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 from the pillar of cloud; they kept His decrees and the statutes 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 O LORD our God, You answered them. You were a forgiving God to them, yet an avenger of their misdeeds.
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 the LORD our God and worship at His holy mountain, for the LORD our God is holy.
Exalt the Lord our God, and bow yourselves down before his holy mount; for holy is the Lord our God.
