Psalms 99
God the Supreme King
1The LORD is king;
and the people tremble.
He is enthroned above the winged creatures
and the earth shakes.
2The LORD is mighty in Zion;
he is supreme over all the nations.
3Everyone will praise his great and majestic name.
Holy is he!
4Mighty king, you love what is right;
you have established justice in Israel;
you have brought righteousness and fairness.
5Praise the LORD our God;
worship before his throne!
Holy is he!
6Moses and Aaron were his priests,
and Samuel was one who prayed to him;
they called to the LORD, and he answered them.
7He spoke to them from the pillar of cloud;
they obeyed the laws and commands that he gave them.
8O LORD, our God, you answered your people;
you showed them that you are a God who forgives,
even though you punished them for their sins.
9Praise the LORD our God,
and worship at his sacred hill!
The LORD our God is holy.
