Exegesis
The verse opens with an equative, verbless identification clause: hu {ה֚וּא | hû} ‘He’ functions as the subject, and the following divine designation YHWH eloheinu {יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֵ֔ינוּ | Yə-hō-wāh ʾĕ-lō-hê-nû} ‘the LORD our God’ identifies who He is, requiring an implied English copula (“is”).
In context — 1 Chronicles 16:14
He is the LORD our God ; His judgments are in all the earth.
