Psalms 99

1 The LORD reigns. Let the peoples tremble. He sits enthroned among the cherubim; the earth shakes.

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

2 The LORD is great in Zion. He is high above all the peoples.

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

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

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

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

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

5 Exalt the LORD our God. Worship 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 were among his priests, Samuel among those who call on his name; they called on the LORD, and he answered 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 spoke to them in the pillar of cloud. They kept his testimonies, the statute that he gave them.

He spake to them in the cloudy pillar; They kept his commandments, And the ordinances which he gave them.

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

Thou, O LORD, our God! didst answer them; Thou wast to them a forgiving God, Though thou didst punish their transgressions!

9 Exalt the LORD, our God. Worship at his holy mountain, for the LORD, our God, is holy.

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