For the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah. A psalm.

¹Clap your hands,^y all you nations;

shout to God with cries of joy.^z

²For the Lord Most High^a is awesome,^b

the great King^c over all the earth.

³He subdued^d nations under us,

peoples under our feet.

⁴He chose our inheritance^e for us,

the pride of Jacob,^f whom he loved.^b

⁵God has ascended^g amid shouts of joy,^h

the Lord amid the sounding of trumpets.ⁱ

⁶Sing praises^j to God, sing praises;

sing praises to our King, sing praises.

⁷For God is the King of all the earth;^k

sing to him a psalm^l of praise.

⁸God reigns^m over the nations;

God is seated on his holy throne.ⁿ

⁹The nobles of the nations assemble

as the people of the God of Abraham,

for the kings^c of the earth belong to God;^o

he is greatly exalted.^p
