For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.
Oh clap your hands, all ye peoples;
Shout unto God with the voice of triumph.
For {Or, Jehovah is most high and terrible}Jehovah Most High is terrible;
He is a great King over all the earth.
He subdueth peoples under us,
And nations under our feet.
He chooseth our inheritance for us,
The glory of Jacob whom he {Or, loveth}loved. [Selah
God is gone up with a shout,
Jehovah with the sound of a trumpet.
Sing praises to God, sing praises:
Sing praises unto our King, sing praises.
For God is the King of all the earth:
Sing ye praises {Or, in a skilful psalm Hebrew: Maschil.}with understanding.
God reigneth over the nations:
God sitteth upon his holy throne.
The princes of the peoples are gathered together
{Or, Unto the people}To be the people of the God of Abraham;
For the shields of the earth belong unto God:
He is greatly exalted.
