Psalm 99

The Lord reigns, let the peoples tremble [with reverential fear]! He sits [enthroned] above the cherubim, let the earth quake!

The Lord is great in Zion, and He is high above all the peoples.

Let them confess and praise Your great name, awesome and reverence inspiring! It is holy, and holy is He!(A)

The strength of the king who loves righteousness and equity You establish in uprightness; You execute justice and righteousness in Jacob (Israel).

Extol the Lord our God and worship at His footstool! Holy is He!

Moses and Aaron were among His priests, and Samuel was among those who called upon His name; they called upon the Lord, and He answered them.

He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud; they kept His testimonies and the statutes that He gave them.(B)

You answered them, O Lord our God; You were a forgiving God to them, although avenging their evildoing and wicked practices.

Extol the Lord our God and worship at His holy hill, for the Lord our God is holy!
