Current English Language Version

The Book of Psalms

Psalm 99

The LORD Our God is Holy!

1THE LORD reigns,
let the nations tremble!

He sits enthroned between the cherubim;
let the earth be shaken! 2 The LORD is great in Zion;
He is exalted over all the peoples. 3 Let them praise Your great and awesome name—
He is holy. 4 The King is mighty and loves justice.
You have established equity; You have executed justice
and righteousness in Jacob. 5 Exalt the LORD our God,
and worship at His footstool; He is holy! 6 Moses and Aaron were among His priests,
Samuel was among those who called on His name; they called upon the LORD,
and He answered them. 7 He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud;
they kept His decrees, and the statutes that He gave them. 8 O LORD our God,
You answered them; You were a God who forgave them,
though You punished their misdeeds. 9 Exalt the LORD our God,
and worship at His holy mountain, for the LORD our God is holy!




About Psalms Chapter 99

Book IV · Psalms 90–106 — God’s eternal kingship and faithful care

What happens

The LORD reigns above the cherubim, and the nations are called to tremble before His holiness. Moses, Aaron and Samuel illustrate His readiness to hear prayer, while His forgiveness and justice are held together.

Why it matters

God is both gracious and holy. Approaching Him calls for praise, obedience and reverence, never the assumption that mercy makes wrongdoing unimportant.

Key verse

“Let them praise Your great and awesome name— He is holy.”
