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

Yahweh reigns! Let the peoples tremble. He sits enthroned among the cherubim. Let the earth be moved.

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

Yahweh is great in Zion. He is high above all the peoples.

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

Let them praise your great and awesome name. He is Holy!

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

The King’s strength also loves justice. You establish equity. You execute justice and righteousness in Jacob.

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

Exalt Yahweh our God. Worship at his footstool. He is Holy!

6 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.

Moses and Aaron were among his priests, Samuel was among those who call on his name. They called on Yahweh, and he answered them.

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

He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud. They kept his testimonies, the statute that he gave them.

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

You answered them, Yahweh our God. You are a God who forgave them, although you took vengeance for their doings.

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

Exalt Yahweh, our God. Worship at his holy hill, for Yahweh, our God, is holy!
