PSALM 99

I

1. The Lord is king, the peoples tremble;he is enthroned on the cherubim, the earth quakes.

2. Great is the Lord in Zion,exalted above all the peoples.

3. Let them praise your great and awesome name:Holy is he!

II

4. O mighty king, lover of justice,you have established fairness;you have created just rule in Jacob.

5. Exalt the Lord, our God;bow down before his footstool;holy is he!

III

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

7. From the pillar of cloud he spoke to them;they kept his decrees, the law he had given them.

8. O Lord, our God, you answered them;you were a forgiving God to them,though you punished their offenses.

9. Exalt the Lord, our God;bow down before his holy mountain;holy is the Lord, our God.
