Psalm 47

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.

1 Oh clap your hands, all ye peoples;
Shout unto God with the voice of triumph.
2 For Jehovah Most High is terrible;
He is a great King over all the earth.
3 He subdueth peoples under us,
And nations under our feet.
4 He chooseth our inheritance for us,
The glory of Jacob whom he loved.

Selah

5 God is gone up with a shout,
Jehovah with the sound of a trumpet.
6 Sing praise to God, sing praises:
Sing praises unto our King, sing praises.
7 For God is the King of all the earth:
Sing ye praises with understanding.
8 God reigneth over the nations:
God sitteth upon his holy throne.
9 The princes of the peoples are gathered together
[To be] the people of the God of Abraham:
For the shields of the earth belong unto God;
He is greatly exalted.
