Verse 4 is found in chapter 47 of Psalms. Psalm 47 celebrates God as King over all the earth. The call to clap and shout transforms divine sovereignty into public and communal celebration. Jacob’s election is connected with a universal perspective: the God of Israel is not presented as a deity limited territorially, but as sovereign over the nations. The conclusion imagines peoples joining in praise of the God of Abraham.
