Psalm 99

Psalm 99

1. The Lord reigns, let the nations tremble; he sits enthroned between the cherubim, let the earth shake.

2. Great is the Lord in Zion; he is exalted over all the nations.

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

4. The King is mighty, he loves justice— you have established equity; in Jacob you have done what is just and right.

5. Exalt the Lord our God and worship at his footstool; he is holy.

6. Moses and Aaron were among his priests, Samuel was among those who called on his name; they called on the Lord and he answered them.

7. He spoke to them from the pillar of cloud; they kept his statutes and the decrees he gave them.

8. Lord our God, you answered them; you were to Israel a forgiving God, though you punished their misdeeds.[a]

9. Exalt the Lord our God and worship at his holy mountain, for the Lord our God is holy.
