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

1Jehovah reigneth; let the peoples tremble: He sitteth above the cherubim; let the earth be moved.

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

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

2Jehovah is great in Zion; And he is high above all the peoples.

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

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

3Let them praise thy great and terrible name: Holy is he.

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

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

4 The king’s strength also loveth justice; Thou dost establish equity; Thou executest justice and righteousness in Jacob.

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

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

5Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And worship at his footstool: Holy is he.

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

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

6 Moses and Aaron among his priests, And Samuel among them that call upon his name; They called upon Jehovah, and he answered 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.

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

7He spake unto them in the pillar of cloud: They kept his testimonies, And the statute that he gave them.

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

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

8Thou answeredst them, O Jehovah our God: Thou wast a God that forgavest them, Though thou tookest vengeance of their doings.

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

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

9Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And worship at his holy hill; For Jehovah our God is holy.

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