< Psalms 99 >
1 YHWH has reigned, peoples tremble, The Inhabitant of the cherubim, the earth shakes.
The LORD reigneth; let the peoples tremble: he sitteth upon the cherubim; let the earth be moved.
2 YHWH [is] great in Zion, And He [is] high over all the peoples.
The LORD 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 terrible 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 loveth judgment; thou dost establish equity, thou executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.
5 Exalt our God YHWH, And bow yourselves at His footstool, He [is] holy.
Exalt ye the LORD 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 them that call on 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 unto 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 answeredst them, O LORD our God: thou wast a God that forgavest them, though thou tookest vengeance of their doings.
9 Exalt our God YHWH, And bow yourselves at His holy hill, For our God YHWH [is] holy!
Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at his holy hill; for the LORD our God is holy.
