Psalms 47

1 For the Leader; a Psalm for the sons of Korah. O 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 the LORD is most high, awful; 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 pride of Jacob whom He loveth. (Selah)

Elegit nobis hæreditatem suam; speciem Jacob quam dilexit.

5 God is gone up amidst shouting, the LORD amidst the sound of the horn.

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 in a skilful song.

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, the people of the God of Abraham; for unto God belong the shields of the earth; He is greatly exalted.

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