Psalm 99
Darby Translation · 9 verses
1Jehovah reigneth: let the peoples tremble. He sitteth [between the] cherubim: let the earth be moved.2Jehovah is great in Zion, and he is high above all the peoples.3They shall praise thy great and terrible name, — it is holy! —4And the strength of the king that loveth justice. Thou hast established equity: it is thou that executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.5Exalt Jehovah our God, and worship at his footstool. He is holy!6Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name: they called unto Jehovah, and he answered them.7He spoke unto them in the pillar of cloud: they kept his testimonies, and the statute that he gave them.8Jehovah, our God, thou answeredst them: a forgiving God wast thou unto them, though thou tookest vengeance of their doings.9Exalt Jehovah our God, and worship at the hill of his holiness; for holy is Jehovah our God.
Darby's Synopsis
Psalm 99, though simple in its character, embraces some important principles. Jehovah now reigns, not only in making manifest heavenly power, but in the establishment of that power as king upon the earth. He now sits between the cherubim as heretofore in Israel. He is great in Zion and high above all peoples.
