Psalms

Chapter 46

  1. 2

    Clap your hands, all you nations, in applause; acclaim your God with cries of rejoicing.

  2. 3

    The Lord is high above us, and worthy of dread; he is the sovereign Ruler of all the earth;

  3. 4

    he has tamed the nations to our will, bowed the Gentiles at our feet,

  4. 5

    claimed us for his own portion, Jacob the fair, the well beloved.

  5. 6

    God goes up, loud are the cries of victory; the Lord goes up, loudly the trumpets peal.

  6. 7

    A psalm, a psalm for our God, a psalm, a psalm for our King!

  7. 8

    God is King of all the earth; sound the hymn of praise!

  8. 9

    God reigns over the heathen, God sits enthroned in holiness.

  9. 10

    The rulers of the nations throw in their lot with us, that worship Abraham’s God; a God so high, he has all earth’s princes for his vassals.
