PSALM 99

1Jehovah reigneth: let the peoples tremble. He sitteth between the cherubim: let the earth be moved.

2Jehovah is great in Zion, and he is high above all the peoples.

3They shall praise thy great and terrible name, — it is holy! —

4And the strength of the king that loveth justice. Thou hast established equity: it is thou that executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.

5Exalt Jehovah our God and worship at his footstool. He is holy![#Hebrew: Elohim]

6Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name: they called unto Jehovah, and he answered them.

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

8Jehovah, our God thou answeredst them: a forgiving ·God wast thou unto them, though thou tookest vengeance of their doings.[#Hebrew: Elohim; #Hebrew: El]

9Exalt Jehovah our God and worship at the hill of his holiness; for holy is Jehovah our God.[#Hebrew: Elohim; #Hebrew: Elohim]
