上帝是聖潔的君王

99 耶和華掌權,萬民當戰抖;
祂坐在基路伯天使之上,
大地當戰抖。
耶和華在錫安偉大無比,
超越萬邦。
萬國要讚美你偉大而可畏的名,
你是聖潔的。
你是大能的君王,
喜愛正義,維護公平,
在雅各家秉公行義。
要尊崇我們的上帝耶和華,
俯伏在祂腳凳前敬拜,
祂是聖潔的。
祂的祭司中有摩西和亞倫,
呼求祂的人中有撒母耳。
他們求告耶和華,
祂就應允他們。
祂在雲柱中向他們說話,
他們遵守祂賜下的法度和律例。
耶和華,我們的上帝啊,
你應允了他們,
向他們顯明你是赦罪的上帝,
但也懲罰他們的罪惡。
要尊崇我們的上帝耶和華,
在祂的聖山上敬拜祂,
因為我們的上帝耶和華是聖潔的。

Yahweh Is a Holy King

99 Yahweh is king; let the peoples tremble.
He sits enthroned[a] between the cherubim. Let the earth shake.
Yahweh is great in Zion,
and he is exalted over all the peoples.
Let them praise your great and fearful name.
He is holy.
And the strength of the king loves justice.[b]
You have established equity;
you have executed justice and righteousness in Jacob.
Exalt Yahweh our God,
and worship at his footstool.
He is holy.
Moses and Aaron were among his priests;
Samuel also was among those who called on his name.
They called to Yahweh, and he answered them.
He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud.
They kept his testimonies and the statute he gave to them.
O Yahweh our God, you answered them.
You were a forgiving God to them,
but an avenger of their wrong deeds.
Exalt Yahweh our God,
and worship at his holy mountain,
for Yahweh our God is holy.
