Psalm 47:2: For the Lord Most High is awesome; He is a great King over all the earth.
Experiencing Jesus in the Psalms
For the Lord, Jehovah, the self-existent and only God, most high, most great in power, lofty in dominion, eminent in wisdom, elevated in glory, is terrible. None can resist his power or stand before his vengeance; yet as these are wielded on behalf of his subjects, they are fit reasons for rejoicing. Omnipotence, which is terrible to crush, is almighty to protect. He is a great King over all the earth. Not over Judea only, but to the utmost isles. Not a hamlet or an islet is excluded from his dominion. 1
