Psalm 99

¹The Lord reigns,^(A)
    let the nations tremble;^(B)
he sits enthroned^(C) between the cherubim,^(D)
    let the earth shake.
²Great is the Lord^(E) in Zion;^(F)
    he is exalted^(G) over all the nations.
³Let them praise^(H) your great and awesome name^(I)—
    he is holy.^(J)

⁴The King^(K) is mighty, he loves justice^(L)—
    you have established equity;^(M)
in Jacob you have done
    what is just and right.^(N)
⁵Exalt^(O) the Lord our God
    and worship at his footstool;
    he is holy.

⁶Moses^(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.
⁷He spoke to them from the pillar of cloud;^(T)
    they kept his statutes and the decrees he gave them.

⁸Lord our God,
    you answered them;
you were to Israel a forgiving God,^(U)
    though you punished^(V) their misdeeds.^[a]
⁹Exalt the Lord our God
    and worship at his holy mountain,
    for the Lord our God is holy.
