1 Til sangmesteren; av Korahs barn; en salme. Klapp i hender, alle folk, juble for Gud med fryderop. Klapp i hender, alle folk, juble for Gud med fryderop. 2 For Herren, den Høieste, er forferdelig, en stor konge over all jorden. 3 Han legger folkeslag under oss og folkeferd under våre føtter. 4 Han utvelger oss vår arvelodd, Jakobs, hans elskedes herlighet. Sela.

5 Gud fór op under jubelrop, Herren under basuners lyd.

6 Lovsyng Gud, lovsyng! Lovsyng vår konge, lovsyng! 7 For Gud er all jordens konge; syng en sang som gjør vis! 8 Gud er konge over folkene, Gud har satt sig på sin hellige trone. 9 Folkenes fyrster samler sig med Abrahams Guds folk; for jordens skjold hører Gud til, han er såre ophøiet.

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.
