Psalms 99
1 Yahweh is the [supreme] king, so [all] the people-groups should tremble ([in his presence/in front of him])! He sits on his throne [in the temple] above the [statues of] winged creatures, [so] the earth should quake/shake!
| ای قومها بترسید، زیرا خداوند سلطنت می‌کند! ای تمام زمین بلرزید، زیرا خداوند بر تخت خود در میان کروبیان جلوس فرموده است! |
2 Yahweh is a mighty [king] in Jerusalem; [but] he is [also] the supreme ruler of all people-groups.
| خداوند در اورشلیم جلوس فرموده و بر تمام قومها مسلط است. |
3 [So] they should praise him because he is very great/powerful; and he is holy!
| همهٔ مردم نام بزرگ او را گرامی بدارند، زیرا او مقدّس است. |
4 He is a mighty king who (loves/is pleased with) what is just/right; he has acted justly and fairly [DOU] in Israel.
| ای پادشاه مقتدر، تو انصاف را دوست داری. تو در اسرائیل عدالت و برابری را بنیاد نهاده‌ای. |
5 Praise Yahweh our God! Worship him [in front of the Sacred Chest in his temple] [MTY], where he rules people. He is holy!
| خداوند، خدای ما را ستایش کنید و در پیشگاه او به خاک بیفتید زیرا او مقدّس است! |
6 Moses and Aaron were two of his priests; Samuel also was someone who prayed to him. Those [three] cried out to Yahweh [to help them], and he answered them.
| وقتی موسی و هارون و سموئیل، مردان خدا، از خداوند کمک خواستند، او درخواست ایشان را مستجاب فرمود. |
7 He spoke to Moses and Aaron from the cloud [that was like a huge] pillar; they obeyed [all] the laws and commandments [DOU] that he gave to them.
| او از میان ستون ابر با آنان سخن گفت و آنان احکام و دستورهای او را اطاعت کردند. |
8 Yahweh, our God, you answered [your people] [when they cried out to you to help them]; you are a God who forgave them [for those sins that they had committed], even though you punished them for the things that they did that are wrong.
| ای خداوند، خدای ما، تو دعای قوم خود را مستجاب نمودی و به آنها نشان دادی که خدایی بخشنده هستی؛ اما در عین حال آنها را به خاطر گناهانشان تنبیه نمودی. |
9 Praise Yahweh, our God, and worship him [at the temple] on his sacred hill; [it is right to do that] because Yahweh, our God, is holy!
| خداوند، خدای ما را حمد گویید و او را نزد کوه مقدّسش در اورشلیم عبادت کنید، زیرا او مقدّس است. |
