Psalms 47
God the King of the Earth.
For the choir director. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.
1 O (a)clap your hands, all peoples;
(b)Shout to God with the voice of [a]joy.
2 For the Lord Most High is to be (c)feared,
A (d)great King over all the earth.
3 He (e)subdues peoples under us
And nations under our feet.
4 He chooses our (f)inheritance for us,
The (g)glory of Jacob whom He loves. [b]Selah.
5 God has (h)ascended [c]with a shout,
The Lord, [d]with the (i)sound of a trumpet.
6 (j)Sing praises to God, sing praises;
Sing praises to (k)our King, sing praises.
7 For God is the (l)King of all the earth;
Sing praises (m)with a [e]skillful psalm.
8 God (n)reigns over the nations,
God [f]sits on (o)His holy throne.
9 The [g](p)princes of the people have assembled themselves as the (q)people of the God of Abraham,
For the (r)shields of the earth belong to God;
He [h]is (s)highly exalted.
