Psalms 99

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

Gospod kraljuje; naj ljudstva trepetajo. On sedi med kerubi; naj bo zemlja omajana.

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

Gospod je velik na Sionu; visoko je nad vsemi ljudstvi.

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

Naj hvalijo tvoje veliko in strašno ime, kajti sveto je.

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.

Kraljeva moč ljubi tudi sodbo. Ti utrjuješ nepristranskost, izvršuješ sodbo in pravičnost v Jakobu.

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

Povišujte Gospoda, našega Boga in obožujte pri njegovi pručki, kajti on je svet.

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.

Mojzes in Aron med njegovimi duhovniki in Samuel med tistimi, ki kličejo njegovo ime; klicali so Gospoda in jim je odgovoril.

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

Govoril jim je v oblačnem stebru; držali so se njegovih pričevanj in odredbe, ki jim jo je dal.

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

Ti jim odgovarjaš, oh Gospod, naš Bog. Bil si jim Bog, ki odpušča, čeprav se maščuješ njihovim domiselnostim.

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

Povišujte Gospoda, našega Boga in obožujte ga pri njegovi sveti gori, kajti Gospod, naš Bog, je svet.
