Psalms 99

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

The LORD reigneth; let the peoples tremble; He is enthroned upon the cherubim; let the earth quake.

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

The LORD 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 name as great and awful; 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 strength also of the king who loveth justice — Thou hast established equity, Thou hast executed justice and righteousness in Jacob.

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

Exalt ye the LORD our God, and prostrate yourselves 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, did call upon the LORD, 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 spoke 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.

O LORD our God, Thou didst answer them; a forgiving God wast Thou unto them, though Thou tookest vengeance of their misdeeds.

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

Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at His holy hill; for the LORD our God is holy.
