Psalms 99

1 Jehovah hath reigned, peoples tremble, The Inhabitant of the cherubs, the earth shaketh.

The LORD reigneth, let the nations tremble! He sitteth between the cherubs, let the earth quake!

2 Jehovah in Zion [is] great, And high He [is] over all the peoples.

Great is the LORD upon Zion; He is exalted over all the nations.

3 They praise Thy name, 'Great, and fearful, holy [it] is.'

Let men praise thy great and terrible name! It is holy.

4 And the strength of the king Hath loved judgment, Thou — Thou hast established uprightness; Judgment and righteousness in Jacob, Thou — Thou hast done.

Let them declare the glory of the King who loveth justice! Thou hast established equity; Thou dost execute justice in Jacob!

5 Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And bow yourselves at His footstool, holy [is] He.

Exalt ye Jehovah, our God, And bow yourselves down at his footstool! He is holy.

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, with his priests, And Samuel, who called upon his name, —They called upon the LORD, 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 to them in the cloudy pillar; They kept his commandments, And the ordinances which 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, O LORD, our God! didst answer them; Thou wast to them a forgiving God, Though thou didst punish their transgressions!

9 Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And bow yourselves at His holy hill, For holy [is] Jehovah our God!

Exalt the LORD, our God. And worship at his holy mountain! For the LORD, our God, is holy.
