Psalms 47

 

¹ Clap your hands, all you nations; shout to God with cries of joy.

 

² For the LORD Most High is awesome, the great King over all the earth.

 

³ He subdued nations under us, peoples under our feet.

 

⁴ He chose our inheritance for us, the pride of Jacob, whom he loved.

 

⁵ God has ascended amid shouts of joy, the LORD amid the sounding of trumpets.

 

⁶ Sing praises to God, sing praises; sing praises to our King, sing praises.

 

⁷ For God is the King of all the earth; sing to him a psalm of praise.

 

⁸ God reigns over the nations; God is seated on his holy throne.

 

⁹ The nobles of the nations assemble

as the people of the God of Abraham,

for the kings of the earth belong to God;

he is greatly exalted.
