< Psalms 47 >
1 Unto the end, for the sons of Core. O clap your hands, all ye nations: shout unto God with the voice of Joy,
O CLAP your hands, all ye people; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.
2 For the Lord is high, terrible: a great king over all the earth.
For the Lord most high is terrible; he is a great King over all the earth.
3 He hath subdued the people under us; and the nations under our feet.
He shall subdue the people under us, and the nations under our feet.
4 He hath chosen for us his inheritance the beauty of Jacob which he hath loved.
He shall choose our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved. (Selah)
5 God is ascended with jubilee, and the Lord with the sound of trumpet.
God is gone up with a shout, the Lord with the sound of a trumpet.
6 Sing praises to our God, sing ye: sing praises to our king, sing ye.
Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises.
7 For God is the king of all the earth: sing ye wisely.
For God is the King of all the earth: sing ye praises with understanding.
8 God shall reign over the nations: God sitteth on his holy throne.
God reigneth over the heathen: God sitteth upon the throne of his holiness.
9 The princes of the people are gathered together, with the God of Abraham: for the strong gods of the earth are exceedingly exalted.
The princes of the people are gathered together, even the people of the God of Abraham: for the shields of the earth belong unto God: he is greatly exalted.
