You people all [over the world], clap your hands for joy! Shout joyfully to [praise] God!

Yahweh, who is much greater than any other god, is awesome; he is the king who rules over all the world!

He chose for us this land where we now live; we Israeli people [MTY], whom he loves, are proud that we own this land.

٥ 5 ارْتَفَعَ اللهُ وَسَطَ الْهُتَافِ، ارْتَفَعَ الرَّبُّ وَسَطَ دَوِيِّ نَفْخِ الْبُوقِ.

God has gone up [into his temple]. The people shouted joyfully and blew trumpets as Yahweh went up.

٦ 6 رَنِّمُوا لِلهِ، رَنِّمُوا. رَنِّمُوا لِمَلِكِنَا، رَنِّمُوا.

Sing songs to praise our God! Sing to praise him [DOU]! Sing to God, our king!

God is the one who rules over everything in the world; sing a psalm to him!

٨ 8 مَلَكَ اللهُ عَلَى الأُمَمِ، اللهُ جَلَسَ عَلَى عَرْشِهِ الْمُقَدَّسِ.

God sits on his sacred throne as he rules over the people of [all] ethnic groups.

٩ 9 رُؤَسَاءُ الأُمَمِ اجْتَمَعُوا مَعَ شَعْبِ إِلَهِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ. لأَنَّ لِلهِ حُمَاةَ الأَرْضِ وَهُوَ مُتَعَالٍ جِدّاً.

The rulers of those people-groups gather as God’s people, the people [descended] from Abraham, [do]. But God has more power than the weapons/shields [of all the kings] on the earth; (he is greatly honored/people honor him) everywhere.
