and nations under our feet.d

4He chooses for us our inheritance —

the pride of Jacob, whom He loves.e•Selah

5God ascends among shouts of joy,

the LORD, among the sound of trumpets.f

sing praise to our King, sing praise!g

for God is King of all the earth.i

8God reigns over the nations;

God is seated on His holy throne.j

9The nobles of the peoples have assembled

with the people of the God of Abraham.k

For the leadersl of the earth belong to God;
