'Oh clap your hands, all ye peoples; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.' Jehovah Most High is terrible, a great King over all the earth, who subdueth peoples under us and chooseth our inheritance for us. 'God is gone up with a shout, Jehovah with the sound of a trumpet', the church sings it at the Ascension. Sing praises with understanding: God reigneth over the nations; the princes of the peoples are gathered together to be the people of the God of Abraham.
