1Jehovah reigneth: let the peoples tremble. He sitteth [between the] cherubim: let the earth be moved.

1Jehovah hath reigned, peoples tremble, The Inhabitant of the cherubs, the earth shaketh.

1The Lord is King; let the peoples be in fear: his seat is on the winged ones; let the earth be moved.

2 Jehovah is great in Zion, and he is high above all the peoples.

2Jehovah in Zion <FI>is<Fi> great, And high He <FI>is<Fi> over all the peoples.

2The Lord is great in Zion; he is high over all the nations.

3 They shall praise thy great and terrible name, — it is holy! —

3They praise Thy name, `Great, and fearful, holy <FI>it<Fi> is.'

3Let them give praise to your name, for it is great and to be feared; holy is he.

4 And the strength of the king that loveth justice. Thou hast established equity: it is thou that executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.

4And the strength of the king Hath loved judgment, Thou--Thou hast established uprightness; Judgment and righteousness in Jacob, Thou--Thou hast done.

4The king's power is used for righteousness; you give true decisions, judging rightly in the land of Jacob.

5 Exalt Jehovah ourGod, and worship at his footstool. He is holy!

5Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And bow yourselves at His footstool, holy <FI>is<Fi> He.

5Give high honour to the Lord our God, worshipping at his feet; holy is he.

6 Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name: they called unto Jehovah, and he answered them.

6Moses and Aaron among His priests, And Samuel among those proclaiming His name. They are calling unto Jehovah, And He doth answer them.

6Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among those who gave honour to his name; they made prayers to the Lord, and he gave answers to them.

7 He spoke unto them in the pillar of cloud: they kept his testimonies, and the statute that he gave them.

7In a pillar of cloud He speaketh unto them, They have kept His testimonies, And the statute He hath given to them.

7His voice came to them from the pillar of cloud; they kept his witness, and the law which he gave them.

8 Jehovah, ourGod, thou answeredst them: a forgivingGod wast thou unto them, though thou tookest vengeance of their doings.

8O Jehovah, our God, Thou hast afflicted them, A God forgiving Thou hast been to them, And taking vengeance on their actions.

8You gave them an answer, O Lord our God; you took away their sin, though you gave them punishment for their wrongdoing.

9 Exalt Jehovah ourGod, and worship at the hill of his holiness; for holy is Jehovah ourGod.

9Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And bow yourselves at His holy hill, For holy <FI>is<Fi> Jehovah our God!

9Give high honour to the Lord our God, worshipping with your faces turned to his holy hill; for the Lord our God is holy.
