Psalms 99:2
1 The LORD reigns; let the nations tremble! He is enthroned above the cherubim; let the earth quake!
Great is the LORD in Zion; He is exalted above all the peoples.
3 Let them praise Your great and awesome name— He is holy!
4 The mighty King loves justice. You have established equity; You have exercised justice and righteousness in Jacob.
