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.

Footnotes

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

99 The Lord reigneth; let the people tremble: he sitteth between the cherubims; let the earth be moved.

The Lord is great in Zion; and he is high above all the people.

Let them praise thy great and terrible name; for it is holy.

The king's strength also loveth judgment; thou dost establish equity, thou executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.

Exalt ye the Lord our God, and worship at his footstool; for he is holy.

Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name; they called upon the Lord, and he answered them.

He spake unto them in the cloudy pillar: they kept his testimonies, and the ordinance that he gave them.

Thou answeredst them, O Lord our God: thou wast a God that forgavest them, though thou tookest vengeance of their inventions.

Exalt the Lord our God, and worship at his holy hill; for the Lord our God is holy.

Den trefalt helige Kungen

99 (A) Herren är kung,
        folken bävar!
    Han tronar på keruberna,
        jorden skälver!
(B) Herren är stor i Sion,
    upphöjd över alla folk.
(C) De prisar ditt namn,
        det stora och fruktade.
    Helig är han.

(D) Kungen är mäktig,
        han älskar det rätta.
    Du håller rättvisan vid makt,
        rätt och rättfärdigt
            handlar du i Jakob.
(E) Upphöj Herren vår Gud,
        tillbe vid hans fötters pall!
    Helig är han.

(F) Mose och Aron
        var bland hans präster,
    Samuel bland dem
        som åkallar hans namn.
    De ropade till Herren
        och han svarade dem.
(G) I molnpelaren talade han till dem,
    de höll hans vittnesbörd
        och lagen han gav dem.
Herre vår Gud, du svarade dem,
    du var en Gud som förlät dem
        men som även hämnades
            deras gärningar.
Upphöj Herren vår Gud,
        tillbe vid hans heliga berg!
    Ja, helig är Herren vår Gud.
