Psalms 47

1 “For the leader of the music. A psalm of the sons of Korah.” O clap your hands, all ye nations! Shout unto God with the voice of triumph!

Psalmus David, in finem, pro filiis Core. Omnes Gentes plaudite manibus: iubilate Deo in voce exultationis.

2 For terrible is Jehovah, the Most High, The great king over all the earth.

Quoniam Dominus excelsus, terribilis: Rex magnus super omnem terram.

3 He hath subdued nations under us, And kingdoms under our feet;

Subiecit populos nobis: et gentes sub pedibus nostris.

4 He hath chosen for us an inheritance, The glory of Jacob, whom he loved. (Pause)

Elegit nobis hereditatem suam: speciem Iacob, quam dilexit.

5 God goeth up with a shout; Jehovah with the sound of the trumpet.

Ascendit Deus in iubilo: et Dominus in voce tubae.

6 Sing praises to God, sing praises! Sing praises to our king, sing praises!

Psallite Deo nostro, psallite: psallite Regi nostro, psallite.

7 For God is king of all the earth; Sing to him hymns of praise!

Quoniam Rex omnis terrae 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 nations gather themselves together To the people of the God of Abraham; For the mighty of the earth belong to God; He is supremely exalted.

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