Psalms 99

1 The Lord is king; let the nations tremble: he is throned upon cherubs; let earth quake.

YHWH reigneth; let the people tremble: he sitteth between the cherubims; let the earth be moved.

2 The Lord is great in Zion, he is high over all the nations.

YHWH is great in Zion; and he is high above all the people.

3 Let them praise your great and terrible name. Holy is he.

Let them praise thy great and terrible name; for it is holy.

4 You are a king who loves justice, equity you have established: justice and right you have wrought for Jacob.

The king's strength also loveth judgment; thou dost establish equity, thou executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.

5 Exalt the Lord our God, bow down at his footstool. Holy is he.

Exalt ye YHWH our Elohim, and worship at his footstool; for he is holy.

6 Among his priests were Moses and Aaron, Samuel among those who called on his name. They called to the Lord, and he gave them answer.

Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name; they called upon YHWH, and he answered them.

7 He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud, they kept his commands and the statute he gave them.

He spake unto them in the cloudy pillar: they kept his testimonies, and the ordinance that he gave them.

8 Lord our God, you gave them answer. A God of forgiveness were you to them, who suffered their deeds to go unpunished.

Thou answeredst them, O YHWH our Elohim: thou wast an El that forgavest them, though thou tookest vengeance of their inventions.

9 Exalt the Lord our God; bow down at his holy mountain. For holy is the Lord our God.

Exalt YHWH our Elohim, and worship at his holy hill; for YHWH our Elohim is holy.
