Psalms 47

1 You people all [over the world], clap your hands for joy! Shout joyfully to [praise] God!

To victorie, a salm to the sones of Chore. Alle ye folkis, make ioie with hondis; synge ye hertli to God in the vois of ful out ioiyng.

2 Yahweh, who is much greater than any other god, is awesome; he is the king who rules over all the world!

For the Lord is hiy and ferdful; a greet kyng on al erthe.

3 He enabled us to defeat [the armies of] the people-groups [that lived in Canaan].

He made puplis suget to vs; and hethene men vndur oure feet.

4 He chose for us this land where we now live; we Israeli people [MTY], whom he loves, are proud that we own this land.

He chees his eritage to vs; the fairnesse of Jacob, whom he louyde.

5 God has gone up [into his temple]. The people shouted joyfully and blew trumpets as Yahweh went up.

God stiede in hertli song; and the Lord in the vois of a trumpe.

6 Sing songs to praise our God! Sing to praise him [DOU]! Sing to God, our king!

Synge ye to oure God, synge ye; synge ye to oure kyng, synge ye.

7 God is the one who rules over everything in the world; sing a psalm to him!

For God is kyng of al erthe; synge ye wiseli.

8 God sits on his sacred throne as he rules over the people of [all] ethnic groups.

God schal regne on hethene men; God sittith on his hooli seete.

9 The rulers of those people-groups gather as God’s people, the people [descended] from Abraham, [do]. But God has more power than the weapons/shields [of all the kings] on the earth; (he is greatly honored/people honor him) everywhere.

The princes of puplis ben gaderid togidere with God of Abraham; for the stronge goddis of erthe ben reisid greetli.
