For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.

1 Oh clap your hands, all ye peoples; Shout unto God with the voice of triumph.

2 For Jehovah Most High is terrible; He is a great King over all the earth.

3 He subdueth peoples under us, And nations under our feet.

4 He chooseth our inheritance for us, The glory of Jacob whom he loved. [Selah

5 God is gone up with a shout, Jehovah 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.
