Psalm 99

The King Is Holy

1   The LORD reigns! Let the peoples tremble.

He is enthroned between the cherubim. m

Let the earth quake. n

2   The LORD is great in Zion;

he is exalted above all the peoples. o

3   Let them praise your great

and awe-inspiring name. p

He is holy. q

4   The mighty King loves justice.

You have established fairness;

you have administered justice

and righteousness in Jacob. r

5   Exalt the LORD our God;

bow in worship at his footstool. s

He is holy. t

6   Moses and Aaron were among his priests; u

Samuel also was among those calling on his name.

They called to the LORD and he answered them. v

7   He spoke to them in a pillar of cloud; w

they kept his decrees and the statutes he gave them.

8   LORD our God, you answered them.

You were a forgiving God to them, x

but an avenger of their sinful actions. y

9   Exalt the LORD our God;

bow in worship at his holy mountain,

for the LORD our God is holy. z
