Psalm 99

The Holy One Rules in Israel

Admonition to the Nations

1 The Lord reigns. Let the peoples tremble.
He is seated above 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 name, great and awesome.

Refrain

He is holy!

Assurance to Israel

4 The King is mighty. He loves justice.
You, Lord,[a] have established fairness.
In Jacob you carried out justice and righteousness.
5 Exalt the Lord our God and bow down before his footstool.

Refrain

He is holy!

Examples From History

6 Moses and Aaron were among his priests.
Samuel was among those who call on his name.
They called on the Lord, and he answered them.
7 From within the pillar of cloud he spoke to them.
They kept his testimonies and the order that he gave them.
8 O Lord our God, you answered them.
For them you were a God who removes sin,
but you repaid them for their deeds.

Concluding Refrain

9 Exalt the Lord our God,
and bow down before his holy mountain,
because the Lord our God is holy.

Footnotes
