Psalms 99

1 The Lord is King; let the peoples be in fear: his seat is on the winged ones; let the earth be moved.

The Lord hath regned, puplis ben wrooth; thou that sittist on cherubyn, the erthe be moued.

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

The Lord is greet in Sion; and hiy aboue alle puplis.

3 Let them give praise to your name, for it is great and to be feared; holy is he.

Knouleche thei to thi greet name, for it is ferdful and hooli;

4 The king's power is used for righteousness; you give true decisions, judging rightly in the land of Jacob.

and the onour of the king loueth doom. Thou hast maad redi dressyngis; thou hast maad doom and riytfulnesse in Jacob.

5 Give high honour to the Lord our God, worshipping at his feet; holy is he.

Enhaunse ye oure Lord God; and worschipe ye the stool of hise feet, for it is hooli.

6 Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among those who gave honour to his name; they made prayers to the Lord, and he gave answers to them.

Moises and Aaron weren among hise preestis; and Samuel was among hem that inwardli clepen his name. Thei inwardli clepiden the Lord, and he herde hem;

7 His voice came to them from the pillar of cloud; they kept his witness, and the law which he gave them.

in a piler of cloude he spak to hem. Thei kepten hise witnessyngis; and the comaundement which he yaf to hem.

8 You gave them an answer, O Lord our God; you took away their sin, though you gave them punishment for their wrongdoing.

Oure Lord God, thou herdist hem; God, thou were merciful to hem, and thou tokist veniaunce on al her fyndyngis.

9 Give high honour to the Lord our God, worshipping with your faces turned to his holy hill; for the Lord our God is holy.

Enhaunse ye oure Lord God, and worschipe ye in his hooli hil; for oure Lord God is hooli.
