The LORD is Holy

1The LORD reigns—

let people tremble;

he is seated above the cherubim—

let the earth quake.

2The LORD is great in Zion

and is exalted above all peoples.

3Let them praise your great and awesome name.

He is holy!

4A mighty king who loves justice,

you have established fairness.

You have exercised justice

and righteousness over Jacob.

5Exalt the LORD our God;

worship and bow down at his footstool;

He is holy!

6Moses and Aaron were among his priests;

Samuel also was among those who invoked his name.

When they called on the LORD,

he answered them.

7In a pillar of cloud he spoke to them;

they obeyed his decrees

and the Law that he gave them.

8LORD our God, you answered them;

you were their God who forgavea them,

but also avenged their evil deeds.

9Exalt the LORD our God and worship at his holy mountain,

for the LORD our God is holy!
