< 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!
Ang Panginoon ay naghahari: manginig ang mga bayan. Siya'y nauupo sa mga querubin; makilos ang lupa.
2 Yahweh is a mighty [king] in Jerusalem; [but] he is [also] the supreme ruler of all people-groups.
Ang Panginoon ay dakila sa Sion; at siya'y mataas na higit sa lahat ng mga bayan.
3 [So] they should praise him because he is very great/powerful; and he is holy!
Purihin nila ang iyong dakila at kakilakilabot na pangalan: siya'y banal.
4 He is a mighty king who (loves/is pleased with) what is just/right; he has acted justly and fairly [DOU] in Israel.
Ang lakas naman ng hari ay umiibig ng kahatulan; ikaw ay nagtatatag ng karampatan, ikaw ay nagsasagawa ng kahatulan at katuwiran sa Jacob.
5 Praise Yahweh our God! Worship him [in front of the Sacred Chest in his temple] [MTY], where he rules people. He is holy!
Ibunyi ninyo ang Panginoon nating Dios, at magsisamba kayo sa harap ng kaniyang tungtungan; siya'y banal.
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.
Si Moises at si Aaron sa gitna ng kaniyang mga saserdote, at si Samuel sa kanila na nagsisitawag sa kaniyang pangalan; sila'y nagsisitawag sa Panginoon, at siya'y sumasagot sa kanila.
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.
Siya'y nagsasalita sa kanila sa haliging ulap: kanilang iniingatan ang kaniyang mga patotoo, at ang palatuntunan na ibinigay niya sa kanila.
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.
Sumagot ka sa kanila, Oh Panginoon naming Dios; ikaw ay Dios na nagpatawad sa kanila, bagaman nanghiganti ka sa kanilang mga gawa.
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!
Ibunyi ninyo ang Panginoon nating Dios, at magsisamba kayo sa kaniyang banal na bundok; sapagka't ang Panginoon nating Dios ay banal.
