Psalms 98

1A psalm for David himself. The Lord hath reigned, let the people be angry: he that sitteth on the cherubims: let the earth be moved.

Psalmus ipsi David. Dominus regnavit: irascantur populi; qui sedet super cherubim: moveatur terra.

2The lord is great in Sion, and high above all people.

Dominus in Sion magnus, et excelsus super omnes populos.

3Let them give praise to thy great name: for it is terrible and holy:

Confiteantur nomini tuo magno, quoniam terribile et sanctum est,

4And the king’s honour loveth judgment. Thou hast prepared directions: thou hast done judgment and justice in Jacob.

et honor regis judicium diligit. Tu parasti directiones; judicium et justitiam in Jacob tu fecisti.

5Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore his footstool, for it is holy.

Exaltate Dominum Deum nostrum, et adorate scabellum pedum ejus, quoniam sanctum est.

6Moses and Aaron among his priests: and Samuel among them that call upon his name. They called upon the Lord, and he heard them:

Moyses et Aaron in sacerdotibus ejus, et Samuel inter eos qui invocant nomen ejus: invocabant Dominum, et ipse exaudiebat eos;

7He spoke to them in the pillar of the cloud. They kept his testimonies, and the commandment which he gave them.

in columna nubis loquebatur ad eos. Custodiebant testimonia ejus, et præceptum quod dedit illis.

8Thou didst hear them, O Lord our God: thou wast a merciful God to them, and taking vengeance on all their inventions.

Domine Deus noster, tu exaudiebas eos; Deus, tu propitius fuisti eis, et ulciscens in omnes adinventiones eorum.

9Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore at his holy mountain: for the Lord our God is holy.

Exaltate Dominum Deum nostrum, et adorate in monte sancto ejus, quoniam sanctus Dominus Deus noster.
