1The Lord reigns!
The nations tremble.
He sits enthroned above the winged angels;
the earth shakes.

2The Lord is elevated in Zion;
he is exalted over all the nations.

3Let them praise your great and awesome name!
He is holy!

4The king is strong;
he loves justice.
You ensure that legal decisions will be made fairly;
you promote justice and equity in Jacob.

5Praise the Lord our God!
Worship before his footstool!
He is holy!

6Moses and Aaron were among his priests;
Samuel was one of those who prayed to him.
They prayed to the Lord and he answered them.

7He spoke to them from a pillar of cloud;
they obeyed his regulations and the ordinance he gave them.

8O Lord our God, you answered them.
They found you to be a forgiving God,
but also one who punished their sinful deeds.

9Praise the Lord our God!
Worship on his holy hill,
for the Lord our God is holy!
