Psalms 99

1 YHWH has reigned, peoples tremble, The Inhabitant of the cherubim, the earth shakes.

The LORD reigneth, let the nations tremble! He sitteth between the cherubs, let the earth quake!

2 YHWH [is] great in Zion, And He [is] high over all the peoples.

Great is the LORD upon Zion; He is exalted over all the nations.

3 They praise Your Name, “Great, and fearful, [it] is holy!”

Let men praise thy great and terrible name! It is holy.

4 And the strength of the king Has loved judgment, You have established uprightness; Judgment and righteousness in Jacob, You have done.

Let them declare the glory of the King who loveth justice! Thou hast established equity; Thou dost execute justice in Jacob!

5 Exalt our God YHWH, And bow yourselves at His footstool, He [is] holy.

Exalt ye Jehovah, our God, And bow yourselves down at his footstool! He is holy.

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, with his priests, And Samuel, who called upon his name, —They called upon the LORD, 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 spake to them in the cloudy pillar; They kept his commandments, And the ordinances which 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, O LORD, our God! didst answer them; Thou wast to them a forgiving God, Though thou didst punish their transgressions!

9 Exalt our God YHWH, And bow yourselves at His holy hill, For our God YHWH [is] holy!

Exalt the LORD, our God. And worship at his holy mountain! For the LORD, our God, is holy.
