99 Drottinn er konungur orðinn! Þjóðirnar skjálfi. Hann situr uppi yfir kerúbunum, jörðin nötri.

Drottinn er mikill á Síon og hátt upp hafinn yfir alla lýði.

Þeir skulu lofa nafn þitt, hið mikla og óttalega. Heilagur er hann!

Þú ert voldugur konungur, sem elskar réttinn, þú hefir staðfest réttvísina, rétt og réttlæti hefir þú framið í Jakob.

Tignið Drottin, Guð vorn, og fallið fram fyrir fótskör hans. Heilagur er hann!

Móse og Aron eru meðal presta hans, Samúel meðal þeirra er ákalla nafn hans, þeir ákalla Drottin og hann bænheyrir þá.

Hann talar til þeirra í skýstólpanum, því að þeir gæta vitnisburða hans og laganna, er hann gaf þeim.

Drottinn, Guð vor, þú bænheyrir þá, þú reynist þeim fyrirgefandi Guð og sýknar þá af gjörðum þeirra.

Tignið Drottin Guð vorn, og fallið fram fyrir hans heilaga fjalli, því að heilagur er Drottinn, Guð vor.

Psalm 99

The Lord reigns,(A)
    let the nations tremble;(B)
he sits enthroned(C) between the cherubim,(D)
    let the earth shake.
Great is the Lord(E) in Zion;(F)
    he is exalted(G) over all the nations.
Let them praise(H) your great and awesome name(I)
    he is holy.(J)

The King(K) is mighty, he loves justice(L)
    you have established equity;(M)
in Jacob you have done
    what is just and right.(N)
Exalt(O) the Lord our God
    and worship at his footstool;
    he is holy.

Moses(P) and Aaron(Q) were among his priests,
    Samuel(R) was among those who called on his name;
they called on the Lord
    and he answered(S) them.
He spoke to them from the pillar of cloud;(T)
    they kept his statutes and the decrees he gave them.

Lord our God,
    you answered them;
you were to Israel a forgiving God,(U)
    though you punished(V) their misdeeds.[a]
Exalt the Lord our God
    and worship at his holy mountain,
    for the Lord our God is holy.

Footnotes

  1. Psalm 99:8 Or God, / an avenger of the wrongs done to them

99 The Lord reigneth; let the people tremble: he sitteth between the cherubims; let the earth be moved.

The Lord is great in Zion; and he is high above all the people.

Let them praise thy great and terrible name; for it is holy.

The king's strength also loveth judgment; thou dost establish equity, thou executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.

Exalt ye the Lord our God, and worship at his footstool; for he is holy.

Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name; they called upon the Lord, and he answered them.

He spake unto them in the cloudy pillar: they kept his testimonies, and the ordinance that he gave them.

Thou answeredst them, O Lord our God: thou wast a God that forgavest them, though thou tookest vengeance of their inventions.

Exalt the Lord our God, and worship at his holy hill; for the Lord our God is holy.
