NEW JERUSALEMKING JAMES BIBLE
1 [For the choirmaster Of the sons of Korah Psalm] Clap your hands, all peoples, acclaim God withshouts of joy.1 O clap your hands, all ye people; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.
2 For Yahweh, the Most High, is glorious, the great king over al the earth.2 For the LORD most high is terrible; he is a great King over all the earth.
3 He brings peoples under our yoke and nations under our feet.3 He shall subdue the people under us, and the nations under our feet.
4 He chooses for us our birthright, the pride of Jacob whom he loves.Pause4 He shall choose our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved. Selah.
5 God goes up to shouts of acclaim, Yahweh to a fanfare on the ram's horn.5 God is gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet.
6 Let the music sound for our God, let it sound, let the music sound for our king, let it sound.6 Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises.
7 For he is king of the whole world; learn the music, let it sound for God!7 For God is the King of all the earth: sing ye praises with understanding.
8 God reigns over the nations, seated on his holy throne.8 God reigneth over the heathen: God sitteth upon the throne of his holiness.
9 The leaders of the nations ral y to the people of the God of Abraham. The shields of the earth belongto God, who is exalted on high.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.
