< Psalms 47 >
1 TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF THE SONS OF KORAH. All you peoples, clap the hand, Shout to God with a voice of singing,
In finem, pro filiis Core Psalmus. Omnes gentes plaudite manibus: iubilate Deo in voce exultationis.
2 For YHWH Most High [is] fearful, A great King over all the earth.
Quoniam Dominus excelsus, terribilis: Rex magnus super omnem terram.
3 He leads peoples under us, and nations under our feet.
Subiecit populos nobis: et gentes sub pedibus nostris.
4 He chooses for us our inheritance, The excellence of Jacob that He loves. (Selah)
Elegit nobis hereditatem suam: speciem Iacob, quam dilexit.
5 God has gone up with a shout, YHWH with the sound of a horn.
Ascendit Deus in iubilo: et Dominus in voce tubæ.
6 Praise God—praise—give praise to our king, praise.
Psallite Deo nostro, psallite: psallite Regi nostro, psallite.
7 For God [is] King of all the earth, Give praise, O understanding one.
Quoniam Rex omnis terræ Deus: psallite sapienter.
8 God has reigned over nations, God has sat on His holy throne,
Regnabit Deus super gentes: Deus sedet super sedem sanctam suam.
9 Nobles of peoples have been gathered, [With] the people of the God of Abraham, For the shields of earth [are] to God, Greatly has He been exalted!
Principes populorum congregati sunt cum Deo Abraham: quoniam dii fortes terræ, vehementer elevati sunt.
