99 Jehovah hath reigned, peoples tremble, The Inhabitant of the cherubs, the earth shaketh.

² Jehovah in Zion [is] great, And high He [is] over all the peoples.

³ They praise Thy name, `Great, and fearful, holy [it] is.'

⁴ And the strength of the king Hath loved judgment, Thou -- Thou hast established uprightness; Judgment and righteousness in Jacob, Thou -- Thou hast done.

⁵ Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And bow yourselves at His footstool, holy [is] He.

⁶ Moses and Aaron among His priests, And Samuel among those proclaiming His name. They are calling unto Jehovah, And He doth answer them.

⁷ In a pillar of cloud He speaketh unto them, They have kept His testimonies, And the statute He hath given to them.

⁸ O Jehovah, our God, Thou hast afflicted them, A God forgiving Thou hast been to them, And taking vengeance on their actions.

⁹ Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And bow yourselves at His holy hill, For holy [is] Jehovah our God!

¹⁵ `And I turn, and come down from the mount, and the mount is burning with fire, and the two tables of the covenant on my two hands,

¹⁶ and I see, and lo, ye have sinned against Jehovah your God; ye have made to yourselves a molten calf; ye have turned aside hastily out of the way which Jehovah hath commanded you.

¹⁷ `And I lay hold on the two tables, and cast them out of my two hands, and break them before your eyes,

¹⁸ and I throw myself before Jehovah, as at first, forty days and forty nights; bread I have not eaten, and water I have not drunk, because of all your sins which ye have sinned, by doing the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, to make Him angry.

¹⁹ `For I have been afraid because of the anger and the fury with which Jehovah hath been wroth against you, to destroy you; and Jehovah doth hearken unto me also at this time.

²⁰ `And with Aaron hath Jehovah shewed himself very angry, to destroy him, and I pray also for Aaron at that time;

²¹ and your sin, which ye have made -- the calf -- I have taken, and I burn it with fire, and beat it, grinding well till that it [is] small as dust, and I cast its dust unto the brook which is going down out of the mount.

²² `And in Taberah, and in Massah, and in Kibroth-Hattaavah, ye have been making Jehovah wroth:

²³ and in Jehovah's sending you from Kadesh-Barnea, saying, Go up, and possess the land which I have given to you, then ye provoke the mouth of Jehovah your God, and have not given credence to Him, nor hearkened to His voice;

²⁴ rebels ye have been with Jehovah from the day of my knowing you.

²¹ In that hour was Jesus glad in the Spirit, and said, `I do confess to thee, Father, Lord of the heaven and of the earth, that Thou didst hide these things from wise men and understanding, and didst reveal them to babes; yes, Father, because so it became good pleasure before Thee.

²² `All things were delivered up to me by my Father, and no one doth know who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whom the Son may wish to reveal [Him].'

²³ And having turned unto the disciples, he said, by themselves, `Happy the eyes that are perceiving what ye perceive;

²⁴ for I say to you, that many prophets and kings did wish to see what ye perceive, and did not see, and to hear what ye hear, and did not hear.'
