< Psalms 99 >
1 The Lord reigneth; people tremble: he sitteth enthroned over the cherubim; the earth is moved.
Psalmus ipsi David. Dominus regnavit: irascantur populi; qui sedet super cherubim: moveatur terra.
2 The Lord is great in Zion; and he is exalted above all the people.
Dominus in Sion magnus, et excelsus super omnes populos.
3 They will give thanks to thy name, great, and terrible, [and] holy it is.
Confiteantur nomini tuo magno, quoniam terribile et sanctum est,
4 And to the power of the king who loveth justice and righteousness hast thou truly executed in Jacob.
et honor regis judicium diligit. Tu parasti directiones; judicium et justitiam in Jacob tu fecisti.
5 Exalt ye the Lord our God, and bow yourselves down before his footstool: he is holy.—
Exaltate Dominum Deum nostrum, et adorate scabellum pedum ejus, quoniam sanctum est.
6 Moses and Aaron were among his priests, and Samuel among those that call on his name; they called on the Lord, and he answered them.
Moyses et Aaron in sacerdotibus ejus, et Samuel inter eos qui invocant nomen ejus: invocabant Dominum, et ipse exaudiebat eos;
7 In the pillar of cloud he used to speak unto them: they kept his testimonies, and the statutes which he had given unto them.
in columna nubis loquebatur ad eos. Custodiebant testimonia ejus, et præceptum quod dedit illis.
8 O Lord, our God, thou didst answer them: thou wast a forgiving God unto them, yet also an avenger for their wrong doings.
Domine Deus noster, tu exaudiebas eos; Deus, tu propitius fuisti eis, et ulciscens in omnes adinventiones eorum.
9 Exalt the Lord our God, and bow yourselves down before his holy mount; for holy is the Lord our God.
Exaltate Dominum Deum nostrum, et adorate in monte sancto ejus, quoniam sanctus Dominus Deus noster.
