1 In finem, pro filiis Core. Psalmus. Omnes gentes, plaudite manibus; jubilate Deo in voce exsultationis:

For the choirmaster. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. Clap your hands, all you peoples; shout unto God with a voice of triumph.

2 quoniam Dominus excelsus, terribilis, rex magnus super omnem terram.

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

3 Subjecit populos nobis, et gentes sub pedibus nostris.

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

4 Elegit nobis hæreditatem suam; speciem Jacob quam dilexit.

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

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

7 quoniam rex omnis terræ Deus, psallite sapienter.

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

8 Regnabit Deus super gentes; Deus sedet super sedem sanctam suam.
