Psalms 99

1 The Lord reigns; let the nations tremble! He sits on his throne above the cherubim; let the earth shake!

Yhwh reigneth; let the people tremble: he sitteth between the cherubims; let the earth be moved.

2 The Lord rules supreme in Zion, he is sovereign over all the nations.

Yhwh is great in Zion; and he is high above all the people.

3 Let them praise his greatness, and respect him for who he is—for he is holy,

Let them praise thy great and terrible name; for it is holy.

4 having kingly power. You love justice; you make impartial decisions. You have made sure everything is done in fairness and according to what's right.

The king’s strength also loveth judgment; thou dost establish equity, thou executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.

5 Give respect to the Lord our God! Bow down at his feet, for he is holy!

Exalt ye Yhwh our God, and worship at his footstool; for he is holy.

6 Moses and Aaron were among his priests; Samuel also prayed to him. They called out to the Lord for help, and he answered them.

Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name; they called upon Yhwh, and he answered them.

7 He spoke to the people from the pillar of cloud, and they kept the laws and decrees he gave them.

He spake unto them in the cloudy pillar: they kept his testimonies, and the ordinance that he gave them.

8 Lord our God, you answered them. You were a forgiving God to them, but you punished them when they did wrong.

Thou answeredst them, O Yhwh our God: thou wast a God that forgavest them, though thou tookest vengeance of their inventions.

9 Honor the Lord our God, and worship at his holy mountain. For the Lord our God is holy!

Exalt Yhwh our God, and worship at his holy hill; for Yhwh our God is holy.
