Psalms 99 YLT
Summary: An enthronement psalm structured around a threefold refrain declaring God's holiness — "for he is holy" (v. 3, 5, 9) — opening "The LORD reigneth; let the people tremble" (v. 1) and picturing him enthroned "between the cherubims" (v. 1). It uniquely recalls three specific intercessors from Israel's history — "Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name" (v. 6) — who called on the LORD and were answered, including from "the cloudy pillar" (v. 7). It closes urging worship "at his holy hill," since the LORD their God is holy.
1Jehovah hath reigned, peoples tremble, The Inhabitant of the cherubs, the earth shaketh.
2Jehovah in Zion is great, And high He is over all the peoples.
3They praise Thy name, `Great, and fearful, holy it is.'
4And the strength of the king Hath loved judgment, Thou--Thou hast established uprightness; Judgment and righteousness in Jacob, Thou--Thou hast done.
5Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And bow yourselves at His footstool, holy is He.
6Moses and Aaron among His priests, And Samuel among those proclaiming His name. They are calling unto Jehovah, And He doth answer them.
7In a pillar of cloud He speaketh unto them, They have kept His testimonies, And the statute He hath given to them.
8O Jehovah, our God, Thou hast afflicted them, A God forgiving Thou hast been to them, And taking vengeance on their actions.
9Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And bow yourselves at His holy hill, For holy is Jehovah our God!
