Psalms 99

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

יְהוָ֣ה מָ֭לָךְ יִרְגְּז֣וּ עַמִּ֑ים יֹשֵׁ֥ב כְּ֝רוּבִ֗ים תָּנ֥וּט הָאָֽרֶץ׃

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

יְ֭הוָה בְּצִיֹּ֣ון גָּדֹ֑ול וְרָ֥ם ה֝֗וּא עַל־כָּל־הָֽעַמִּֽים׃

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

יֹוד֣וּ שִׁ֭מְךָ גָּדֹ֥ול וְנֹורָ֗א קָדֹ֥ושׁ הֽוּא׃

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

וְעֹ֥ז מֶלֶךְ֮ מִשְׁפָּ֪ט אָ֫הֵ֥ב אַ֭תָּה כֹּונַ֣נְתָּ מֵישָׁרִ֑ים מִשְׁפָּ֥ט וּ֝צְדָקָ֗ה בְּיַעֲקֹ֤ב ׀ אַתָּ֬ה עָשִֽׂיתָ׃

5 Exalt YHWH our God. Worship at his footstool. He is Holy.

רֹֽומְמ֡וּ יְה֘וָ֤ה אֱלֹהֵ֗ינוּ וְֽ֭הִשְׁתַּחֲווּ לַהֲדֹ֥ם רַגְלָ֗יו קָדֹ֥ושׁ הֽוּא׃

6 Moses and Aaron were among his priests, Samuel among those who call on his name; they called on YHWH, and he answered them.

מֹ֘שֶׁ֤ה וְאַהֲרֹ֨ן ׀ בְּֽכֹהֲנָ֗יו וּ֭שְׁמוּאֵל בְּקֹרְאֵ֣י שְׁמֹ֑ו קֹרִ֥אים אֶל־יְ֝הוָ֗ה וְה֣וּא יַעֲנֵֽם׃

7 He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud. They kept his testimonies, the statute that he gave them.

בְּעַמּ֣וּד עָ֭נָן יְדַבֵּ֣ר אֲלֵיהֶ֑ם שָׁמְר֥וּ עֵ֝דֹתָ֗יו וְחֹ֣ק נָֽתַן־לָֽמֹו׃

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

יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֵינוּ֮ אַתָּ֪ה עֲנִ֫יתָ֥ם אֵ֣ל נֹ֭שֵׂא הָיִ֣יתָ לָהֶ֑ם וְ֝נֹקֵ֗ם עַל־עֲלִילֹותָֽם׃

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

רֹֽומְמ֡וּ יְה֘וָ֤ה אֱלֹהֵ֗ינוּ וְ֭הִֽשְׁתַּחֲווּ לְהַ֣ר קָדְשֹׁ֑ו כִּֽי־קָ֝דֹ֗ושׁ יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ׃
