Si Yahweh ang Kataas-taasang Hari

99 Si(A) Yahweh ay naghahari kaya't sa takot ay,
    mga tao'y nanginginig,
trono'y sa ibabaw ng mga kerubin,
    kaya daigdig ay nayayanig.
Si Yahweh'y dakilang tunay, sa Zion o sa mga bansa,
    si Yahweh ang naghahari sa lahat ng mga nilikha.
Purihin natin ang banal at dakila niyang ngalan,
    si Yahweh ay banal!

Ikaw ay dakilang Hari, umiibig sa katuwiran,
    ang dulot mo sa Israel ay ganap na katarungan;
    ang dulot mo sa kanila ay pagtinging pantay-pantay.
Si Yahweh na ating Diyos ay lubos na parangalan;
    sa harap ng kanyang trono, tayo ay manambahan!
    Si Yahweh ay banal!

Si Moises at si Aaron, na mga pari niya;
    at si Samuel nama'y lingkod na sa kanya ay sumamba;
    nang si Yahweh'y dalanginan, dininig naman sila.
Si(B) Yahweh ay nagsalita sa isang haliging ulap;
    sila naman ay nakinig, utos niya ay tinupad.

O Yahweh na aming Diyos, sinagot mo sila agad,
    at ikaw ay nakilalang Diyos na mapagpatawad;
    ngunit pinagdurusa mo kung ang gawa'y hindi tumpak.
Ang Diyos natin na si Yahweh, dapat nating parangalan,
    sa banal na bundok niya sambahin ang kanyang ngalan!
Si Yahweh na ating Diyos ay banal!

Examples From History

Moses and Aaron were among his priests.
Samuel was among those who call on his name.
They called on the Lord, and he answered them.
From within the pillar of cloud he spoke to them.
They kept his testimonies and the order that he gave them.
O Lord our God, you answered them.
For them you were a God who removes sin,
but you repaid them for their deeds.

Concluding Refrain

Exalt the Lord our God,
and bow down before his holy mountain,
because the Lord our God is holy.
