Psalms 99
Psalm 99 proclaims that **YHWH reigns** enthroned between the cherubim, evoking trembling among nations and earth, extolling His greatness in Zion, love for justice and righteousness in Jacob, and repeated declarations of His holiness.[1][4] It recalls Mosheh, Aharon, and Shemu'el calling on YHWH who answered from the pillar of cloud, forgave Israel while avenging wrongdoings, calling for worship at His holy mountain.[1][2]
