God the King of the Earth.
For the choir director. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.
O Aclap your hands, all peoples;
BShout to God with the voice of 1joy.
For the Lord Most High is to be Afeared,
A Bgreat King over all the earth.
He Asubdues peoples under us
And nations under our feet.
He chooses our Ainheritance for us,
The Bglory of Jacob whom He loves. 1
Selah.
 
God has Aascended 1with a shout,
The Lord, 1with the Bsound of a trumpet.
ASing praises to God, sing praises;
Sing praises to Bour King, sing praises.
For God is the AKing of all the earth;
Sing praises Bwith a 1skillful psalm.
God Areigns over the nations,
God 1sits on BHis holy throne.
The 1Aprinces of the people have assembled themselves as the Bpeople of the God of Abraham,
For the Cshields of the earth belong to God;
He 2is Dhighly exalted.
