Psalm 99-100
New American Standard Bible
Praise to the Lord for His Faithfulness to Israel.
99 (A)The Lord reigns, [a]the peoples tremble!
He (B)sits enthroned above the cherubim, [b]the earth quakes!
2 The Lord [c]is (C)great in Zion,
And He is (D)exalted above all the peoples.
3 May they praise Your (E)great and awesome name;
(F)Holy is [d]He.
4 The [e]strength of the King (G)loves [f]justice;
You have established [g](H)order;
You have (I)executed [h]justice and righteousness in Jacob.
5 [i](J)Exalt the Lord our God
And (K)worship at His footstool;
(L)Holy is He.
6 (M)Moses and Aaron were among His (N)priests,
And (O)Samuel was among those who (P)called on His name;
They (Q)called upon the Lord and He answered them.
7 He (R)spoke to them in the pillar of cloud;
They (S)kept His testimonies
And the statute that He gave them.
8 Lord our God, You (T)answered them;
You were a (U)forgiving God to them,
And yet an (V)avenger of their evil deeds.
9 Exalt the Lord our God
And worship at His holy hill,
For the Lord our God is holy.
All People Exhorted to Praise God.
A Psalm for [j]Thanksgiving.
100 (W)Shout joyfully to the Lord, all the earth.
2 (X)Serve the Lord with jubilation;
(Y)Come before Him with rejoicing.
3 Know that (Z)the Lord [k]Himself is God;
It is He who has (AA)made us, and [l]not we ourselves;
We are (AB)His people and the sheep of His pasture.
4 Enter His gates (AC)with [m]thanksgiving,
And His courtyards with praise.
Give thanks to Him, (AD)bless His name.
5 For (AE)the Lord is good;
(AF)His mercy is everlasting
And His (AG)faithfulness is to all generations.
