99 Yahweh reigns! Let the peoples tremble.
    He sits enthroned among the cherubim.
    Let the earth be moved.
Yahweh is great in Zion.
    He is high above all the peoples.
Let them praise your great and awesome name.
    He is Holy!

The King’s strength also loves justice.
    You establish equity.
    You execute justice and righteousness in Jacob.
Exalt Yahweh our God.
    Worship at his footstool.
    He is Holy!

Moses and Aaron were among his priests,
    Samuel was among those who call on his name.
    They called on Yahweh, and he answered them.
He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud.
    They kept his testimonies,
    the statute that he gave them.
You answered them, Yahweh our God.
    You are a God who forgave them,
    although you took vengeance for their doings.
Exalt Yahweh, our God.
    Worship at his holy hill,
    for Yahweh, our God, is holy!

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.
