PSALM 99


99:1 the Lord reigneth; let the peoples tremble; He is enthroned upon the cherubim; let the earth quake.

99:2 the Lord is great in Zion; and He is high above all the peoples.

99:3 Let them praise Thy name as great and awful; Holy is He.

99:4 The strength also of the king who loveth justice--Thou hast established equity, Thou hast executed justice and righteousness in Jacob.

99:5 Exalt ye the Lord our God, and prostrate yourselves at His footstool; Holy is He.

99:6 Moses and Aaron among His priests, and Samuel among them that call upon His name, did call upon the Lord, and He answered them.

99:7 He spoke unto them in the pillar of cloud; they kept His testimonies, and the statute that He gave them.

99:8 O the Lord our God, Thou didst answer them; a forgiving God wast Thou unto them, though Thou tookest vengeance of their misdeeds.

99:9 Exalt ye the Lord our God, and worship at His holy hill; for the Lord our God is holy.
