Psalm 99

Psalm 99

Praise to God for His Holiness

¹The Lord is king; let the peoples tremble!

He sits enthroned upon the cherubim; let the earth quake!^*

²The Lord is great in Zion;

he is exalted over all the peoples.^*

³Let them praise your great and awesome name.

Holy is he!

⁴Mighty King,ⁿ lover of justice,

you have established equity;

you have executed justice

and righteousness in Jacob.^*

⁵Extol the Lord our God;

worship at his footstool.

Holy is he!^*

⁶Moses and Aaron were among his priests,

Samuel also was among those who called on his name.

They cried to the Lord, and he answered them.^*

⁷He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud;

they kept his decrees

and the statutes that he gave them.^*

⁸O Lord our God, you answered them;

you were a forgiving God to them

but an avenger of their wrongdoings.^*

⁹Extol the Lord our God,

and worship at his holy mountain,

for the Lord our God is holy.^*
