< Psalms 99 >
1 The Lord is king; let the nations tremble: he is throned upon cherubs; let earth quake.
2 The Lord is great in Zion, he is high over all the nations.
3 Let them praise your great and terrible name. Holy is he.
4 You are a king who loves justice, equity you have established: justice and right you have wrought for Jacob.
5 Exalt the Lord our God, bow down at his footstool. Holy is he.
6 Among his priests were Moses and Aaron, Samuel among those who called on his name. They called to the Lord, and he gave them answer.
7 He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud, they kept his commands and the statute he gave them.
8 Lord our God, you gave them answer. A God of forgiveness were you to them, who suffered their deeds to go unpunished.
9 Exalt the Lord our God; bow down at his holy mountain. For holy is the Lord our God.
