The King Is Holy
1The Lord reigns! Let the peoples tremble.
He is enthroned between the cherubim.
Let the earth quake.
2The Lord is great in Zion;
he is exalted above all the peoples.
3Let them praise your great
and awe-inspiring name.
He is holy.
4The mighty King loves justice.
You have established fairness;
you have administered justice
and righteousness in Jacob.
5Exalt the Lord our God;
bow in worship at his footstool.
He is holy.
6Moses and Aaron were among his priests;
Samuel also was among those calling on his name.
They called to the Lord and he answered them.
7He spoke to them in a pillar of cloud;
they kept his decrees and the statutes he gave them.
8Lord our God, you answered them.
You were a forgiving God to them,
but an avenger of their sinful actions.
9Exalt the Lord our God;
bow in worship at his holy mountain,
for the Lord our God is holy.
