Unto the end, for the sons of Core.
1
(To the choir-master. Of the sons of Core. A psalm.)
1
In finem, pro filiis Core. Psalmus.
2
O clap your hands, all ye nations: shout unto God with the voice of joy,
2
Clap your hands, all you nations, in applause; acclaim your God with cries of rejoicing.
2
Omnes gentes, plaudite manibus; jubilate Deo in voce exsultationis:
3
For the Lord is high, terrible: a great king over all the earth.
3
The Lord is high above us, and worthy of dread; he is the sovereign Ruler of all the earth;
3
quoniam Dominus excelsus, terribilis, rex magnus super omnem terram.
4
He hath subdued the people under us; and the nations under our feet.
4
he has tamed the nations to our will, bowed the Gentiles at our feet,
4
Subjecit populos nobis, et gentes sub pedibus nostris.
5
He hath chosen for us his inheritance, the beauty of Jacob which he hath loved.
5
claimed us for his own portion, Jacob the fair, the well beloved.
5
Elegit nobis hæreditatem suam; speciem Jacob quam dilexit.
6
God is ascended with jubilee, and the Lord with the sound of trumpet.
6
God goes up, loud are the cries of victory; the Lord goes up, loudly the trumpets peal.
6
Ascendit Deus in jubilo, et Dominus in voce tubæ.
7
Sing praises to our God, sing ye: sing praises to our king, sing ye.
7
A psalm, a psalm for our God, a psalm, a psalm for our King!
7
Psallite Deo nostro, psallite; psallite regi nostro, psallite:
8
For God is the king of all the earth: sing ye wisely.
8
God is King of all the earth; sound the hymn of praise!
8
quoniam rex omnis terræ Deus, psallite sapienter.
9
God shall reign over the nations: God sitteth on his holy throne.
9
God reigns over the heathen, God sits enthroned in holiness.
9
Regnabit Deus super gentes; Deus sedet super sedem sanctam suam.
10
The princes of the people are gathered together, with the God of Abraham: for the strong gods of the earth are exceedingly exalted.
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.
10
Principes populorum congregati sunt cum Deo Abraham, quoniam dii fortes terræ vehementer elevati sunt.
