PSALM 99

    1The LORD reigns—peoples tremble,

          enthroned upon cherubim—the earth shakes.

    2The LORD is great in Zion

          and exalted over all the peoples.

    3They acclaim Your name:

          Great and fearful,

                He is holy.

    4And with a king’s strength He loves justice.”

          You firmly founded righteousness,

                judgment and justice in Jacob You made.

    5Exalt the LORD our God

          and bow down to His footstool.

                He is holy.

    6Moses and Aaron among His priests

          and Samuel among those who call on His name

                called to the LORD and He answered them.

    7In a pillar of cloud did He speak to them.

          They kept His precepts and the statute He gave them.

    8LORD our God, it was You Who answered them,

          a forbearing God You were to them,

                yet an avenger of their misdeeds.

    9Exalt the LORD our God

          and bow to His holy mountain,

                for the LORD our God is holy.
