Psalms 99
Praise to God for His Holiness
1
The LORD is king; let the peoples tremble!
He sits enthroned upon the cherubim; let the earth quake!
2
The LORD is great in Zion;
he is exalted over all the peoples.
3
Let them praise your great and awesome name.
Holy is he!
4
Mighty King, lover of justice,
you have established equity;
you have executed justice
and righteousness in Jacob.
5
Extol the LORD our God;
worship at his footstool.
Holy is he!
6
Moses and Aaron were among his priests,
Samuel also was among those who called on his name.
They cried to the LORD, and he answered them.
7
He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud;
they kept his decrees,
and the statutes that he gave them.
8
O LORD our God, you answered them;
you were a forgiving God to them,
but an avenger of their wrongdoings.
9
Extol the LORD our God,
and worship at his holy mountain;
for the LORD our God is holy.
