Chapter summary (Treasury of Scripture Knowledge, 1880)

1 The prophet, setting forth the kingdom of God in Zion, 5 exhorts all, by the example of their forefathers, to worship God at his holy hill.

99Jehovah reigneth; let the peoples tremble:

He sitteth above the cherubim; let the earth be moved.

2Jehovah is great in Zion;

And he is high above all the peoples.

3Let them praise thy great and terrible name:

Holy is he.

4The king’s strength also loveth justice;

Thou dost establish equity;

Thou executest justice and righteousness in Jacob.

5Exalt ye Jehovah our God,

And worship at his footstool:

Holy is he.

6Moses and Aaron among his priests,

And Samuel among them that call upon his name;

They called upon Jehovah, and he answered them.

7He spake unto them in the pillar of cloud:

They kept his testimonies,

And the statute that he gave them.

8Thou answeredst them, O Jehovah our God:

Thou wast a God that forgavest them,

Though thou tookest vengeance of their doings.

9Exalt ye Jehovah our God,

And worship at his holy hill;

For Jehovah our God is holy.
