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

The Lord is great in Zion, he is high over all the nations.

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

Let them praise your great and terrible name. Holy is he.

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

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

Exalt the Lord our God, bow down at his footstool. Holy is he.

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.

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 cloud, they kept his commands and the statute he gave them.

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

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