Psalms 99

₁Our LORD, you are King!

You rule from your throne

above the winged creatures,

as people tremble

and the earth shakes.

₂You are praised in Zion,

and you control all nations.

₃Only you are God!

And your power alone,

so great and fearsome,

is worthy of praise.

₄You are our mighty King,

a lover of fairness,

who sees that justice is done

everywhere in Israel.

₅Our LORD and our God,

we praise you

and kneel down to worship you,

the God of holiness!

₆Moses and Aaron were two

of your priests.

Samuel was also one of those

who prayed in your name,

and you, our LORD,

answered their prayers.

₇You spoke to them

from a thick cloud,

and they obeyed your laws.

₈Our LORD and our God,

you answered their prayers

and forgave their sins,

but when they did wrong,

you punished them.

₉We praise you, LORD God,

and we worship you

at your sacred mountain.

Only you are God!
