Psalms
The Psalter is Israel’s hymnbook: lament, praise, thanksgiving, royal psalms, and wisdom. It trains the heart to speak to God in trouble and in joy, and it points ahead to the Messiah.
English Revised Version
Psalms 99
1The LORD reigneth; let the peoples tremble: he sitteth upon the cherubim; let the earth be moved. 2The LORD is great in Zion; and he is high above all the peoples. 3Let them praise thy great and terrible name: holy is he. 4The king’s strength also loveth judgment; thou dost establish equity, thou executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob. 5Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at his footstool: holy is he. 6Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call on his name; they called upon the LORD, and he answered them. 7He spake unto them in the pillar of cloud: they kept his testimonies, and the statute that he gave them. 8Thou answeredst them, O LORD our God: thou wast a God that forgavest them, though thou tookest vengeance of their doings. 9Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at his holy hill; for the LORD our God is holy.
