1(99) A Psalm of David. The Lord reigns; —let the people rage; [it is he] that sits upon the cherubs, let the earth be moved.
1O sing unto the Lord a new song; for he hath done marvellous things: his right hand, and his holy arm, hath gotten him the victory.
2The Lord is great in Sion, and is high over all the people.
2The Lord hath made known his salvation: his righteousness hath he openly shewed in the sight of the heathen.
3Let them give thanks to your great name; for it is terrible and holy.
3He hath remembered his mercy and his truth toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.
4And the king's honor loves judgment; you have prepared equity, you have wrought judgment and justice in Jacob.
4Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise.
5Exalt you⌃ the Lord our God, and worship [at] his footstool; for he is holy.
5Sing unto the Lord with the harp; with the harp, and the voice of a psalm.
6Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name; they called upon the Lord, and he heard them.
6With trumpets and sound of cornet make a joyful noise before the Lord, the King.
7He spoke to them in a pillar of cloud; they kept his testimonies, and the ordinances which he gave them.
7Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
8O Lord our God, you heard them; O God, you became propitious to them, though you did take vengeance on all their devices.
8Let the floods clap their hands: let the hills be joyful together
9Exalt you⌃ the Lord our God, and worship at his holy mountain; for the Lord our God is holy.
9Before the Lord; for he cometh to judge the earth: with righteousness shall he judge the world, and the people with equity.
