To the chief Musician, A Psalm for the sons of Korah.

1 O clap your hands, all ye people; 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 people 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 heathen: God sitteth upon the throne of his holiness.

9 The princes of the people are gathered together, even the people of the God of Abraham: for the shields of the earth belong unto God: he is greatly exalted.

1 Vir die musiekleier. Van die kinders van Korag. 'n Psalm.

2 Alle volke, klap met die hande; juig tot eer van God met 'n stem van gejubel!

3 Want die HERE, die Allerhoogste, is gedug, 'n groot Koning oor die hele aarde.

4 Hy bring volke onder ons en nasies onder ons voete.

5 Hy kies ons erfdeel vir ons uit, die trots van Jakob wat Hy liefhet. Sela.

6 God vaar op met gejuig, die HERE met basuingeklank.

7 Psalmsing tot eer van God, psalmsing! Psalmsing tot eer van ons Koning, psalmsing!

8 Want God is Koning van die hele aarde; psalmsing met 'n onderwysing.

9 God regeer oor die nasies; God sit op sy heilige troon. [ (Psalms 47:10) Die edeles van die volke het vergader -- 'n volk van die God van Abraham; want aan God behoort die skilde van die aarde. Hoog verhewe is Hy! ]
