Exegesis
The final genitive tou theou hemon {τοῦ θεοῦ ἡμῶν | toû the-oû hē-môn} identifies these attributes as belonging to “our God,” so the English rendering “belong to our God” makes the implied copular relationship explicit while preserving the focus on God as the One to whom all saving power and honor are ascribed.
In context — Revelation 19:1
After these things I heard what sounded like a great voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying, “Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God .”
