context_page_description: Psalm 93 is the 93rd psalm of the Book of Psalms, generally known in English by its first verse, in the King James Version, "The Lord reigneth, he is clothed with majesty". The Book of Psalms is part of the Hebrew Bible and the Christian Old Testament. It is Psalm 92 in the slightly different numbering system of the Greek Septuagint and Latin Vulgate versions of the Bible. Its Latin title is Dominus regnavit, decorem indutus est. It is the first of a series of psalms which are called royal psalms as they praise God as King.
  The psalm is a regular part of Jewish, Catholic, Anglican and Protestant worship. It has been set to music often throughout centuries. The Latin version was set by Hildegard of Bingen, Josquin des Prez, Jean-Joseph de Mondonville and Jules Van Nuffel, among others. Heinrich Schütz and Ferdinand Hiller composed settings in German. Handel used verses from the psalm for his Chandos Anthem No. 4 for use in the Anglican Church.
