Psalm 99

THE KING IS HOLY

¹The Lord reigns! Let the peoples tremble.

He is enthroned between the cherubim.^g

Let the earth quake.^h

²The Lord is great in Zion;

he is exalted above all the peoples.ⁱ

³Let them praise your great

and awe-inspiring name.^j

He is holy.^k

⁴The mighty King loves justice.

You have established fairness;

you have administered justice

and righteousness in Jacob.^l

⁵Exalt the Lord our God;

bow in worship at his footstool.^m

He is holy.ⁿ

⁶Moses and Aaron were among his priests;^o

Samuel also was among those calling on his name.

They called to the Lord and he answered them.^p

⁷He spoke to them in a pillar of cloud;^q

they kept his decrees and the statutes he gave them.

⁸Lord our God, you answered them.

You were a forgiving God to them,^r

but an avenger of their sinful actions.^s

⁹Exalt the Lord our God;

bow in worship at his holy mountain,

for the Lord our God is holy.^t
