Psalms 99:6

AaronMosesSamuel
Prayer

4 The mighty King loves justice. You have established equity; You have exercised justice and righteousness in Jacob.

5 Exalt the LORD our God, and worship at His footstool; He is holy!

Moses and Aaron were among His priests; Samuel was among those who called on His name. They called to the LORD and He answered.

7 He spoke to them from the pillar of cloud; they kept His decrees and the statutes He gave them.

8 O LORD our God, You answered them. You were a forgiving God to them, yet an avenger of their misdeeds.
