¹ (A psalm for the people of Korah and for the music leader.) All of you nations, clap your hands and shout joyful praises to God. ² The LORD Most High is fearsome, the ruler of all the earth. ³ God has put every nation under our power, ⁴ and he chose for us the land that was the pride of Jacob, his favorite. ⁵ God goes up to his throne, as people shout and trumpets blast. ⁶ Sing praises to God our King, ⁷ the ruler of all the earth! Praise God with songs. ⁸ God rules the nations from his sacred throne. ⁹ Their leaders come together and are now the people of Abraham's God. All rulers on earth surrender their weapons, and God is greatly praised!
