Psalms 99

1 Jehovah reigneth: let the peoples tremble. He sitteth [between the] cherubim: let the earth be moved.

The LORD reigneth, let the nations tremble! He sitteth between the cherubs, let the earth quake!

2 Jehovah is great in Zion, and he is high above all the peoples.

Great is the LORD upon Zion; He is exalted over all the nations.

3 They shall praise thy great and terrible name, — it is holy! —

Let men praise thy great and terrible name! It is holy.

4 And the strength of the king that loveth justice. Thou hast established equity: it is thou that executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.

Let them declare the glory of the King who loveth justice! Thou hast established equity; Thou dost execute justice in Jacob!

5 Exalt Jehovah our God, and worship at his footstool. He is holy!

Exalt ye Jehovah, our God, And bow yourselves down at his footstool! He is holy.

6 Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name: they called unto Jehovah, and he answered them.

Moses and Aaron, with his priests, And Samuel, who called upon his name, —They called upon the LORD, and he answered them.

7 He spoke unto them in the pillar of cloud: they kept his testimonies, and the statute that he gave them.

He spake to them in the cloudy pillar; They kept his commandments, And the ordinances which he gave them.

8 Jehovah, our God, thou answeredst them: a forgiving God wast thou unto them, though thou tookest vengeance of their doings.

Thou, O LORD, our God! didst answer them; Thou wast to them a forgiving God, Though thou didst punish their transgressions!

9 Exalt Jehovah our God, and worship at the hill of his holiness; for holy is Jehovah our God.

Exalt the LORD, our God. And worship at his holy mountain! For the LORD, our God, is holy.
