Psalms 47

1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. Oh clap your hands, all ye peoples; Shout unto God with the voice of triumph.

In finem, pro filiis Core. Psalmus. Omnes gentes, plaudite manibus; jubilate Deo in voce exsultationis:

2 For Jehovah Most High is terrible; He is a great King over all the earth.

quoniam Dominus excelsus, terribilis, rex magnus super omnem terram.

3 He subdueth peoples under us, And nations under our feet.

Subjecit populos nobis, et gentes sub pedibus nostris.

4 He chooseth our inheritance for us, The glory of Jacob whom he loved. (Selah)

Elegit nobis hæreditatem suam; speciem Jacob quam dilexit.

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

Ascendit Deus in jubilo, et Dominus in voce tubæ.

6 Sing praises to God, sing praises: Sing praises unto our King, sing praises.

Psallite Deo nostro, psallite; psallite regi nostro, psallite:

7 For God is the King of all the earth: Sing ye praises with understanding.

quoniam rex omnis terræ Deus, psallite sapienter.

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

Regnabit Deus super gentes; Deus sedet super sedem sanctam suam.

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.

Principes populorum congregati sunt cum Deo Abraham, quoniam dii fortes terræ vehementer elevati sunt.
