Psalm 46:5
Douay-Rheims
He hath chosen for us his inheritance the beauty of Jacob which he hath loved.
Jamieson, Fausset & Brown
God, victorious over His enemies, reascends to heaven, amid the triumphant praises of His people, who celebrate His sovereign dominion. This sovereignty is what the Psalm teaches; hence he adds, sing . . . praises with understanding--literally, "sing and play an instructive (Psalm)." The whole typifies Christ's ascension (compare Psa 68:18).
