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。

Psalm 99

The Lord reigns,(A)
    let the nations tremble;(B)
he sits enthroned(C) between the cherubim,(D)
    let the earth shake.
Great is the Lord(E) in Zion;(F)
    he is exalted(G) over all the nations.
Let them praise(H) your great and awesome name(I)
    he is holy.(J)

The King(K) is mighty, he loves justice(L)
    you have established equity;(M)
in Jacob you have done
    what is just and right.(N)
Exalt(O) the Lord our God
    and worship at his footstool;
    he is holy.

Moses(P) and Aaron(Q) were among his priests,
    Samuel(R) was among those who called on his name;
they called on the Lord
    and he answered(S) them.
He spoke to them from the pillar of cloud;(T)
    they kept his statutes and the decrees he gave them.

Lord our God,
    you answered them;
you were to Israel a forgiving God,(U)
    though you punished(V) their misdeeds.[a]
Exalt the Lord our God
    and worship at his holy mountain,
    for the Lord our God is holy.

  1. Psalm 99:8 Or God, / an avenger of the wrongs done to them

The Lord Is Good to His People

99 The Lord rules! Let the people shake in fear! He sits on His throne above the angels. Let the earth shake! The Lord is great in Zion. And He is honored above all people. Let them praise Your great name. It is to be honored with fear. He is holy!

The strength of the King loves what is right. You have set up what is fair. You do what is right and fair in Jacob. Honor the Lord our God. Worship at His feet. For He is holy!

Moses and Aaron were among His religious leaders. And Samuel was among those who called on His name. They called upon the Lord, and He answered them. He spoke to them from the cloud. They kept His Word and the Law that He gave them. O Lord our God, You answered them. You were a forgiving God to them. But You punished them for their wrong-doing. Honor the Lord our God. And worship at His holy mountain. For the Lord our God is holy!
