let the earth shake. |

he is exalted over all the nations. |

he is holy. |

in Jacob you have done
what is just and right. |

and worship at his footstool;

and he answered them. |
7 He spoke to them from the pillar of cloud;
they kept his statutes and the decrees he gave them. |
8 O LORD our God,
you answered them; you were to Israel1 99:8 Hebrew them a forgiving God, though you punished their misdeeds.2 99:8 Or / an avenger of the wrongs done to them |
9 Exalt the LORD our God
and worship at his holy mountain,
for the LORD our God is holy. |
