Psalm 99
Vers 1
God, the LORD, is King, throned on cherubim
Let the peoples quake, earth’s foundations shake,
for in Zion he shows his majesty
and his exaltation over every nation.
Vers 2
Let them spread the fame of his awesome name;
holy is the LORD and to be adored.
Let them praise their King, of his justice sing.
Worship him uprightly. He, the King, is mighty.
Vers 3
You in Jacob’s land have by your own hand
right and truth maintained, equity ordained.
At his footstool bow and revere him now.
Praise him, high and lowly, for the LORD is holy.
Vers 4
Moses to him prayed, Aaron sought his aid;
later Samuel called on him as well.
They cried out to him, and he answered them,
in all tribulation heard their supplication.
Vers 5
He to Israel spoke in a cloud of smoke;
they his glory saw, worshipped him with awe.
He, their God and Shield, his commands revealed,
which his chosen nation kept with dedication.
Vers 6
You came to their aid when to you they prayed;
you forgave them then, though you punished sin.
Come to Zion’s hill and perform God’s will;
praise him, high and lowly, for the LORD is holy.
