< Psalms 99 >
1 Jehovah hath reigned, peoples tremble, The Inhabitant of the cherubs, the earth shaketh.
Jehovah reigneth; let the peoples tremble: He sitteth [above] the cherubim; let the earth be moved.
2 Jehovah in Zion [is] great, And high He [is] over all the peoples.
Jehovah is great in Zion; And he is high above all the peoples.
3 They praise Thy name, 'Great, and fearful, holy [it] is.'
Let them praise thy great and terrible name: Holy is he.
4 And the strength of the king Hath loved judgment, Thou — Thou hast established uprightness; Judgment and righteousness in Jacob, Thou — Thou hast done.
The king’s strength also loveth justice; Thou dost establish equity; Thou executest justice and righteousness in Jacob.
5 Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And bow yourselves at His footstool, holy [is] He.
Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And worship at his footstool: Holy is he.
6 Moses and Aaron among His priests, And Samuel among those proclaiming His name. They are calling unto Jehovah, And He doth answer 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 In a pillar of cloud He speaketh unto them, They have kept His testimonies, And the statute He hath given to them.
He spake unto them in the pillar of cloud: They kept his testimonies, And the statute that he gave them.
8 O Jehovah, our God, Thou hast afflicted them, A God forgiving Thou hast been to them, And taking vengeance on their actions.
Thou answeredst them, O Jehovah our God: Thou wast a God that forgavest them, Though thou tookest vengeance of their doings.
9 Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And bow yourselves at His holy hill, For holy [is] Jehovah our God!
Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And worship at his holy hill; For Jehovah our God is holy.
