The Majesty of God

1 The LORD reigneth; let the people tremble: he sitteth between the cherubims; let the earth be moved.

2 The LORD is great in Zion; and he is high above all the people.

3 Let them praise thy great and terrible name; for it is holy.

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

5 Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at his footstool; for he is holy.

6 Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name; they called upon the LORD, and he answered them.

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

8 Thou answeredst them, O LORD our God: thou wast a God that forgavest them, though thou tookest vengeance of their inventions.

9 Exalt the LORD our God, and worship at his holy hill; for the LORD our God is holy.

Commentary

Psalm 99 reminds us of the importance of recognizing God's authority and sovereignty. The examples of Moses, Aaron, and Samuel demonstrate how even the greatest leaders of their time submitted themselves to God's power. The psalmist also emphasizes the holiness of God, which should inspire awe and reverence in all who approach Him. By calling for obedience to God's commandments, the psalmist reminds us that worship is not just about singing praises, but also about living a life that honors God. Overall, Psalm 99 is a powerful reminder of God's greatness and a call to submit ourselves fully to His will.
