Psalms 99

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

יְהוָה מָלָךְ יִרְגְּזוּ עַמִּים יֹשֵׁב כְּרוּבִים תָּנוּט הָאָֽרֶץ׃

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

יְהוָה בְּצִיּוֹן גָּדוֹל וְרָם הוּא עַל־כָּל־הָֽעַמִּֽים׃

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

יוֹדוּ שִׁמְךָ גָּדוֹל וְנוֹרָא קָדוֹשׁ הֽוּא׃

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.

וְעֹז מֶלֶךְ מִשְׁפָּט אָהֵב אַתָּה כּוֹנַנְתָּ מֵישָׁרִים מִשְׁפָּט וּצְדָקָה בְּיַעֲקֹב ׀ אַתָּה עָשִֽׂיתָ׃

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

רֽוֹמְמוּ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ וְֽהִשְׁתַּחֲווּ לַהֲדֹם רַגְלָיו קָדוֹשׁ הֽוּא׃

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.

מֹשֶׁה וְאַהֲרֹן ׀ בְּֽכֹהֲנָיו וּשְׁמוּאֵל בְּקֹרְאֵי שְׁמוֹ קֹרִאים אֶל־יְהוָה וְהוּא יַעֲנֵֽם׃

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

בְּעַמּוּד עָנָן יְדַבֵּר אֲלֵיהֶם שָׁמְרוּ עֵדֹתָיו וְחֹק נָֽתַן־לָֽמוֹ׃

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

יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ אַתָּה עֲנִיתָם אֵל נֹשֵׂא הָיִיתָ לָהֶם וְנֹקֵם עַל־עֲלִילוֹתָֽם׃

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

רֽוֹמְמוּ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ וְהִֽשְׁתַּחֲווּ לְהַר קָדְשׁוֹ כִּֽי־קָדוֹשׁ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ׃
