Book Two (Psalms 42-72) "Concerning Israel as a Nation"

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.
