Psalms 99

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

Yahweh, hath become king, Let the peoples, tremble, He is enthroned on the cherubim, Let the earth, shake.

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

Yahweh, in Zion, is great, And, high, is he over all the peoples.

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

Let them thank his Name—great and reverend, Holy, is he!

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

Yea, with the strength of a king—justice, he loveth, —Thou, hast established equity, Justice and righteousness in Jacob, thou, hast wrought.

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

Exalt Yahweh our God, And bow down 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, [were] among his priests, And, Samuel, [was] among them who were calling upon his Name, Who were calling upon Yahweh, and, he, used to answer them:

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

In the pillar of cloud, used he to speak unto them, They kept his testimonies, and the statute he gave them.

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

O Yahweh our God! thou, answeredst them, —A pardoning GOD, thou becamest to them, Yet one bringing vengeance on their deeds.

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

Exalt Yahweh our God, And bow down towards his holy mountain, For, holy, is Yahweh our God.
