Psalm 99

Dominus regnavit.

THE LORD is King, be the people never so impatient; he sitteth between the Cherubim, be the earth never so unquiet. The LORD is great in Sion, and high above all people. They shall give thanks unto thy Name, which is great, wonderful, and holy. The King’s power loveth judgment; thou hast prepared equity, thou hast executed judgment and righteousness in Jacob. O magnify the LORD our God, and fall down before his footstool; for he is holy. Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among such as call upon his Name: these called upon the LORD, and he heard them. He spake unto them out of the cloudy pillar; for they kept his testimonies, and the law that he gave them. Thou heardest them, O LORD our God; thou forgavest them, O God, though thou didst punish their wicked doings. O magnify the LORD our God, and worship him upon his holy hill; for the LORD our God is holy.

[Coverdale]


The LORD reigneth; let the people tremble: he sitteth between the cherubims; let the earth be moved.

The LORD is great in Zion; and he is high above all the people.

Let them praise thy great and terrible name; for it is holy.

The king's strength also loveth judgment; thou dost establish equity, thou executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.

Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at his footstool; for he is holy.

Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name; they called upon the LORD, and he answered them.

He spake unto them in the cloudy pillar: they kept his testimonies, and the ordinance that he gave them.

Thou answeredst them, O LORD our God: thou wast a God that forgavest them, though thou tookest vengeance of their inventions.

Exalt the LORD our God, and worship at his holy hill; for the LORD our God is holy.
