< Psalms 47 >

1 For the Chief Musician; a Psalm of the sons of Korah. O clap your hands, all ye peoples; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.
לַמְנַצֵּ֬חַ ׀ לִבְנֵי־קֹ֬רַח מִזְמֹֽור׃ כָּֽל־הָ֭עַמִּים תִּקְעוּ־כָ֑ף הָרִ֥יעוּ לֵ֝אלֹהִ֗ים בְּקֹ֣ול רִנָּֽה׃
2 For the LORD Most High is terrible; he is a great King over all the earth.
כִּֽי־יְהוָ֣ה עֶלְיֹ֣ון נֹורָ֑א מֶ֥לֶךְ גָּ֝דֹול עַל־כָּל־הָאָֽרֶץ׃
3 He shall subdue the peoples under us, and the nations under our feet.
יַדְבֵּ֣ר עַמִּ֣ים תַּחְתֵּ֑ינוּ וּ֝לְאֻמִּ֗ים תַּ֣חַת רַגְלֵֽינוּ׃
4 He shall choose our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved. (Selah)
יִבְחַר־לָ֥נוּ אֶת־נַחֲלָתֵ֑נוּ אֶ֥ת גְּאֹ֨ון יַעֲקֹ֖ב אֲשֶׁר־אָהֵ֣ב סֶֽלָה׃
5 God is gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet.
עָלָ֣ה אֱ֭לֹהִים בִּתְרוּעָ֑ה יְ֝הֹוָ֗ה בְּקֹ֣ול שֹׁופָֽר׃
6 Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises.
זַמְּר֣וּ אֱלֹהִ֣ים זַמֵּ֑רוּ זַמְּר֖וּ לְמַלְכֵּ֣נוּ זַמֵּֽרוּ׃
7 For God is the King of all the earth: sing ye praises with understanding.
כִּ֤י מֶ֖לֶךְ כָּל־הָאָ֥רֶץ אֱלֹהִ֗ים זַמְּר֥וּ מַשְׂכִּֽיל׃
8 God reigneth over the nations: God sitteth upon his holy throne.
מָלַ֣ךְ אֱ֭לֹהִים עַל־גֹּויִ֑ם אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים יָשַׁ֤ב ׀ עַל־כִּסֵּ֬א קָדְשֹֽׁו׃
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.
נְדִ֘יבֵ֤י עַמִּ֨ים ׀ נֶאֱסָ֗פוּ עַם֮ אֱלֹהֵ֪י אַבְרָ֫הָ֥ם כִּ֣י לֵֽ֭אלֹהִים מָֽגִנֵּי־אֶ֗רֶץ מְאֹ֣ד נַעֲלָֽה׃
