1 All ye peoples, clap your hands; shout untoGod with the voice of triumph!
1 O make a glad noise with your hands, all you peoples; letting your voices go up to God with joy.
1A psalm of a canticle, for the sons of Core, on the second day of the week.
2 For Jehovah, the Most High, is terrible, a great king over all the earth.
2For the Lord Most High is to be feared; he is a great King over all the earth.
2Great is the Lord, and exceedingly to be praised in the city of our God, in his holy mountain.
3 He subdueth the peoples under us, and the nations under our feet.
3He will put down the peoples under us, and the nations under our feet.
3With the joy of the whole earth is mount Sion founded, on the sides of the north, the city of the great king.
4 He hath chosen our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved. Selah.
4He will give us our heritage, the glory of Jacob who is dear to him. (Selah.)
4In her houses shall God be known, when he shall protect her.
5 God is gone up amid shouting, Jehovah amid the sound of the trumpet.
5God has gone up with a glad cry, the Lord with the sound of the horn.
5For behold the kings of the earth assembled themselves: they gathered together.
6 Sing psalms ofGod, sing psalms; sing psalms unto our King, sing psalms!
6Give praises to God, make songs of praise; give praises to our King, make songs of praise.
6So they saw, and they wondered, they were troubled, they were moved:
7 ForGod is the King of all the earth; sing psalms with understanding.
7For God is the King of all the earth; make songs of praise with knowledge.
7Trembling took hold of them. There were pains as of a woman in labour.
8 God reigneth over the nations;God sitteth upon the throne of his holiness.
8God is the ruler over the nations; God is on the high seat of his holy rule.
8With a vehement wind thou shalt break in pieces the ships of Tharsis.
9 The willing-hearted of the peoples have gathered together, [with] the people of theGod of Abraham. For untoGod [belong] the shields of the earth: he is greatly exalted.
9The rulers of the peoples have come together, with the people of the God of Abraham; because the powers of the earth are God's: he is lifted up on high.
9As we have heard, so have we seen, in the city of the Lord of hosts, in the city of our God: God hath founded it for ever.
