Psalms 99

1 A psalm for David himself. The Lord hath reigned, let the people be angry: he that sitteth on the cherubims: let the earth be moved.

The Lord reigneth, let the people tremble: he sitteth betweene the Cherubims, let the earth be moued.

2 The Lord is great in Sion, and high above all people.

The Lord is great in Zion, and he is high aboue all the people.

3 Let them give praise to thy great name: for it is terrible and holy:

They shall prayse thy great and fearefull Name (for it is holy)

4 And the king’s honour loveth judgment. Thou hast prepared directions: thou hast done judgment and justice in Jacob.

And the Kings power, that loueth iudgement: for thou hast prepared equitie: thou hast executed iudgement and iustice in Iaakob.

5 Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore his footstool, for it is holy.

Exalt the Lord our God, and fall downe before his footestoole: for he is holy.

6 Moses and Aaron among his priests: and Samuel among them that call upon his name. They called upon the Lord, and he heard them:

Moses and Aaron were among his Priests, and Samuel among such as call vpon his Name: these called vpon the Lord, and he heard them.

7 He spoke to them in the pillar of the cloud. They kept his testimonies, and the commandment which he gave them.

Hee spake vnto them in the cloudie pillar: they kept his testimonies, and the Lawe that he gaue them.

8 Thou didst hear them, O Lord our God: thou wast a merciful God to them, and taking vengeance on all their inventions.

Thou heardest them, O Lord our God: thou wast a fauourable God vnto them, though thou didst take vengeance for their inuentions.

9 Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore at his holy mountain: for the Lord our God is holy.

Exalt the Lord our God, and fall downe before his holy Mountaine: for the Lord our God is holy.
