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

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

1The Lord reigneth; let the people tremble: he sitteth between the cherubims; 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.

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

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

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

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

4The king’s strength also loveth judgment; thou dost establish equity, thou executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.

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

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.

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

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

7He spake unto them in the cloudy pillar: they kept his testimonies, and the ordinance 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.
