99:1 The Lord reigns!
The nations tremble. 2
He sits enthroned above the winged angels; 3
the earth shakes. 4
99:2 The Lord is elevated 5 in Zion;
he is exalted over all the nations.
99:3 Let them praise your great and awesome name!
He 6 is holy!
99:4 The king is strong;
he loves justice. 7
You ensure that legal decisions will be made fairly; 8
you promote justice and equity in Jacob.
99:5 Praise 9 the Lord our God!
Worship 10 before his footstool!
He is holy!
99:6 Moses and Aaron were among his priests;
Samuel was one of those who prayed to him. 11
They 12 prayed to the Lord and he answered them.
99:7 He spoke to them from a pillar of cloud; 13
they obeyed his regulations and the ordinance he gave them.
99:8 O Lord our God, you answered them.
They found you to be a forgiving God,
but also one who punished their sinful deeds. 14
99:9 Praise 15 the Lord our God!
Worship on his holy hill,
for the Lord our God is holy!
