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 .
