Psalm 99
Douay-Rheims 1899
Chapter overview
Psalm 99 pairs transcendent holiness with responsive relationship. The just king loves equity, while Moses, Aaron, and Samuel model prayer that receives answers, forgiveness, and needed discipline before communal worship.

1A psalm of praise.
2Sing joyfully to God, all the earth: serve ye the Lord with gladness. Come in before his presence with exceeding great joy.
3Know ye that the Lord he is God: he made us, and not we ourselves. We are his people and the sheep of his pasture.
4Go ye into his gates with praise, into his courts with hymns: and give glory to him. Praise ye his name:
5For the Lord is sweet, his mercy endureth for ever, and his truth to generation and generation.
