Psalms 99

The Lord, the Fair and Holy King

1 The Lord is king.
    Let the peoples shake with fear.
He sits between the gold creatures with wings.
    Let the earth shake.
2 The Lord in Jerusalem is great;
    he is supreme over all the peoples.
3 Let them praise your name;
    it is great, holy and to be feared.

4 The King is powerful and loves justice.
    Lord, you made things fair;
you have done what is fair and right
    for the people of Jacob.
5 Praise the Lord our God,
    and worship at the Temple, his footstool.
    He is holy.

6 Moses and Aaron were among his priests,
    and Samuel was among his worshipers.
They called to the Lord,
    and he answered them.
7 He spoke to them from the pillar of cloud.
    They kept the rules and laws he gave them.

8 Lord our God, you answered them.
    You showed them that you are a forgiving God,
    but you punished them for their wrongs.
9 Praise the Lord our God,
    and worship at his holy mountain,
    because the Lord our God is holy.
