Context of Psalms 99:6
4And the strength of the king that loveth justice. Thou hast established equity: it is thou that executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob. 5Exalt Jehovah our God, and worship at his footstool. He is holy! Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name: they called unto Jehovah, and he answered them. 7He spoke unto them in the pillar of cloud: they kept his testimonies, and the statute that he gave them. 8Jehovah, our God, thou answeredst them: a forgiving God wast thou unto them, though thou tookest vengeance of their doings.
