< Psalms 99 >
1 YHWH has reigned, peoples tremble, The Inhabitant of the cherubim, the earth shakes.
Jehovah reigns! Let the peoples tremble. He sits above the cherubim, let the earth be moved.
2 YHWH [is] great in Zion, And He [is] high over all the peoples.
Jehovah is great in Zion, and he is high above all the peoples.
3 They praise Your Name, “Great, and fearful, [it] is holy!”
Let them praise thy great and awesome name. Holy is he.
4 And the strength of the king Has loved judgment, You have established uprightness; Judgment and righteousness in Jacob, You have done.
The king's strength also loves justice. Thou establish equity. Thou execute justice and righteousness in Jacob.
5 Exalt our God YHWH, And bow yourselves at His footstool, He [is] holy.
Exalt ye Jehovah our God, and worship at his footstool. Holy is he.
6 Moses and Aaron among His priests, And Samuel among those proclaiming His Name. They are calling to YHWH, And He answers them.
Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among those who call upon his name, they called upon Jehovah, and he answered them.
7 He speaks to them in a pillar of cloud, They have kept His testimonies, And He has given the statute to them.
He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud. They kept his testimonies, and the statute that he gave them.
8 O YHWH, our God, You have afflicted them, You have been a forgiving God to them, And taking vengeance on their actions.
Thou answered them, O Jehovah our God. Thou were a God who forgave them, though thou took vengeance on their doings.
9 Exalt our God YHWH, And bow yourselves at His holy hill, For our God YHWH [is] holy!
Exalt ye Jehovah our God, and worship at his holy hill. For Jehovah our God is holy.
