Psalm 47

God the King of the Earth.

For the choir director. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.

1 O clap your hands, all peoples;
Shout to God with the voice of joy.

2 For the LORD Most High is to be feared,
A great King over all the earth.

3 He subdues peoples under us
And nations under our feet.

4 He chooses our inheritance for us,
The glory of Jacob whom He loves. Selah.

5 God has ascended with a shout,
The LORD, with the sound of a trumpet.

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 praises with a skillful psalm.

8 God reigns over the nations,
God sits on His holy throne.

9 The princes of the people have assembled themselves as the people of the God of Abraham,
For the shields of the earth belong to God;
He is highly exalted.

5 God is gone up with a shout, Jehovah with the sound of a trumpet.

8 God reigneth over the nations: God sitteth upon his holy throne.
