Adonai reigns, let the peoples tremble. He is enthroned upon the cheruvim —let the earth shake! Adonai is great in Zion and He is exalted above all the peoples. Let them praise Your great and awesome Name: holy is He.
The might of a king loves justice. You have established fairness. You executed justice and righteousness in Jacob. Exalt Adonai our God and worship at His footstool: holy is He.
Moses and Aaron were among His kohanim—also Samuel among those calling on His Name. They called on and He answered them. He spoke to them from the pillar of cloud. They kept His testimonies, and the decree that He gave them.
Adonai our God, You answered them. A forgiving God You were to them, though You avenged their misdeeds. Exalt our God, and worship at His holy hill, for holy is Adonai our God.
-Psalm 99 TLV
May this psalm be an encouragement to each of us today. As we begin to study the construction of the Tabernacle, may we be reminded of Adonai's utter holiness, approach His presence with humility, and exalt His Holy Name.
