The LORD reigns, let the peoples tremble [with submissive wonder]! He sits enthroned above the cherubim, let the earth shake!
2
The LORD is great in Zion, And He is exalted and magnified above all the peoples.
3
Let them [reverently] praise Your great and awesome name; Holy is He.

The strength of the King loves justice and righteous judgment; You have established fairness; You have executed justice and righteousness in Jacob (Israel).
5
Exalt the LORD our God And worship at His footstool; Holy is He.
6
Moses and Aaron were among His priests, And Samuel was among those who called on His name; They called upon the LORD and He answered them.
7
He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud; They kept His testimonies And the statutes that He gave them.
8
You answered them, O LORD our God; You were a forgiving God to them, And yet an avenger of their evil practices.
9
Exalt the LORD our God And worship at His holy hill [Zion, the temple mount], For the LORD our God is holy.
