Psalms 47

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

1Oh clap your hands, all ye peoples;Shout unto God with the voice of triumph. 2For Jehovah Most High is terrible;He is a great King over all the earth. 3He subdueth peoples under us,And nations under our feet. 4He chooseth our inheritance for us,The glory of Jacob whom he loved. [Selah 5God is gone up with a shout,Jehovah with the sound of a trumpet. 6Sing praises to God, sing praises:Sing praises unto our King, sing praises. 7For God is the King of all the earth:Sing ye praises with understanding. 8God reigneth over the nations:God sitteth upon his holy throne. 9The princes of the peoples are gathered togetherTo be the people of the God of Abraham;For the shields of the earth belong unto God:He is greatly exalted.
