Psalms 99

1 Yahweh reigns; let the nations tremble. He sits enthroned above the cherubim; the earth quakes.

Jehovah reigneth; let the peoples tremble: He sitteth [above] the cherubim; let the earth be moved.

2 Yahweh is great in Zion; he is exalted above all the nations.

Jehovah is great in Zion; And he is high above all the peoples.

3 Let them praise your great and awesome name; he is holy.

Let them praise thy great and terrible name: Holy is he.

4 The king is strong, and he loves justice. You have established fairness; you have done righteousness and justice in Jacob.

The king’s strength also loveth justice; Thou dost establish equity; Thou executest justice and righteousness in Jacob.

5 Praise Yahweh our God and worship at his footstool. He is holy.

Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And worship at his footstool: Holy is he.

6 Moses and Aaron were among his priests, and Samuel was among those who called on his name. They called to Yahweh, and he answered them.

Moses and Aaron among his priests, And Samuel among them that call upon his name; They called upon Jehovah, and he answered them.

7 He spoke to them from the pillar of cloud. They kept his solemn commands and the statutes that he gave them.

He spake unto them in the pillar of cloud: They kept his testimonies, And the statute that he gave them.

8 You answered them, Yahweh our God. A forgiving God you were to them, but one who punished their sinful deeds.

Thou answeredst them, O Jehovah our God: Thou wast a God that forgavest them, Though thou tookest vengeance of their doings.

9 Praise Yahweh our God, and worship at his holy hill, for Yahweh our God is holy.

Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And worship at his holy hill; For Jehovah our God is holy.
