Psalm 99–101

The Lord Our God Is Holy

99^sThe Lord reigns; ^tlet the peoples tremble!

He ^usits enthroned upon the cherubim; ^vlet the earth quake!

²The Lord is ^wgreat in Zion;

he is ^xexalted over all the peoples.

³Let them praise your ^ygreat and awesome name!

^zHoly is he!

^4aThe King in his might ^bloves justice.¹

You have established equity;

you have executed justice

and righteousness in Jacob.

^5cExalt the Lord our God;

^dworship at his ^efootstool!

^zHoly is he!

^6fMoses and Aaron were among his ^gpriests,

Samuel also was among those who ^hcalled upon his name.

They ⁱcalled to the Lord, and he answered them.

⁷In ^jthe pillar of the cloud he spoke to them;

they ^kkept his testimonies

and the statute that he gave them.

⁸O Lord our God, you answered them;

you were ^la forgiving God to them,

but ^man avenger of their wrongdoings.

⁹Exalt the Lord our God,

and worship at his ⁿholy mountain;

for the Lord our God is holy!

His Steadfast Love Endures Forever

100A Psalm for ^ogiving thanks.

^1pMake a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth!

^2qServe the Lord with gladness!

^rCome into his presence with singing!

³Know that ^sthe Lord, he is God!

It is he who ^tmade us, and ^uwe are his;¹

we are his ^vpeople, and ^wthe sheep of his pasture.

^4xEnter his gates with thanksgiving,

and his ^ycourts with praise!

Give thanks to him; ^zbless his name!

^5aFor the Lord is good;

his steadfast love endures forever,

and his ^bfaithfulness to all generations.

I Will Walk with Integrity

101A Psalm of David.

¹I will sing of ^csteadfast love and justice;

to you, O Lord, I will make music.

²I will ^dponder the way ^ethat is blameless.

Oh when will you ^fcome to me?

I will ^gwalk with ^hintegrity of heart

within my house;

³I will not set before my eyes

anything ⁱthat is worthless.

I hate the work of those who ^jfall away;

it shall not cling to me.

^4kA perverse heart shall be far from me;

I will ^lknow nothing of evil.

⁵Whoever slanders his neighbor ^msecretly

I will ⁿdestroy.

Whoever has a ^ohaughty look and an ^parrogant heart

I will not endure.

⁶I will look with favor on the faithful in the land,

that they may dwell with me;

he who walks in ^qthe way that is blameless

shall minister to me.

⁷No one who ^rpractices deceit

shall dwell in my house;

no one who utters lies

shall ^scontinue before my eyes.

^8tMorning by morning I will destroy

all the wicked in the land,

^ucutting off all ^vthe evildoers

from ^wthe city of the Lord.
