2 How awesome is the LORD Most High, the great King over all the earth!

For YHWH Most High [is] fearful, A great King over all the earth.

3 He subdues nations beneath us, and peoples under our feet.

He leads peoples under us, and nations under our feet.

4 He chooses our inheritance for us, the pride of Jacob, whom He loves.

He chooses for us our inheritance, The excellence of Jacob that He loves. (Selah)

6 Sing praises to God, sing praises; sing praises to our King, sing praises!

Praise God—praise—give praise to our king, praise.

7 For God is King of all the earth; sing profound praises to Him.

For God [is] King of all the earth, Give praise, O understanding one.

8 God reigns over the nations; God is seated on His holy throne.

God has reigned over nations, God has sat on His holy throne,

9 The nobles of the nations have assembled as the people of the God of Abraham; for the shields of the earth belong to God; He is highly exalted.

Nobles of peoples have been gathered, [With] the people of the God of Abraham, For the shields of earth [are] to God, Greatly has He been exalted!
