GOD, enthroned on cherubim, is sovereign,
peoples tremble, the earth quakes.
GOD is great in Zion,
and exalted above all peoples.
They praise Your name as great and awesome;
[God] is holy!
Mighty ruler who loves justice,
it was You who established equity,
You who worked righteous judgment in Jacob.
Exalt the ETERNAL our God
and bow down to the divine footstool;
[God] is holy!
Moses and Aaron among God’s priests,
Samuel, among those who call on the divine name—
when they called to GOD,
they were answered.
[God] spoke to them in a pillar of cloud;
they obeyed those decrees,
the law given to them.
Our ETERNAL God, You answered them;
You were a forgiving God for them,
but You exacted retribution for their misdeeds.
Exalt the ETERNAL our God,
and bow toward God’s holy hill,
for the ETERNAL our God is holy.
