For the Chief Musician; a Psalm of the sons of Korah. 1 O clap your hands, all ye peoples; Shout unto God with the voice of triumph. 2 For the LORD Most High is terrible; He is a great King over all the earth. 3 He shall subdue the peoples under us, And the nations under our feet. 4 He shall choose our inheritance for us, The excellency of Jacob whom he loved. Selah 5 God is gone up with a shout, The LORD with the sound of a trumpet. 6 Sing praises to God, sing praises: Sing praises unto our King, sing praises. 7 For God is the King of all the earth: Sing ye praises with understanding. 8 God reigneth over the nations: God sitteth upon his holy throne. 9 The princes of the peoples are gathered together To be the people of the God of Abraham: For the shields of the earth belong unto God; He is greatly exalted. |
