1 O clap your hands, all you peoples! Shout to God with the voice of triumph and songs of joy!

2 F or the Lord Most High excites terror, awe, and dread; He is a great King over all the earth.

3 H e subdued peoples under us, and nations under our feet.

4 H e chose our inheritance for us, the glory and pride of Jacob, whom He loves. Selah!

5 G od has ascended amid shouting, the Lord with the sound of a trumpet.

6 S ing praises to God, sing praises! Sing praises to our King, sing praises!

7 F or God is the King of all the earth; sing praises in a skillful psalm and with understanding.

8 G od reigns over the nations; God sits upon His holy throne.

9 T he princes and nobles of the peoples are gathered together, a people for the God of Abraham, for the shields of the earth belong to God; He is highly exalted.
