Psalmorum 47

1 In finem, pro filiis Core Psalmus. Omnes gentes plaudite manibus: iubilate Deo in voce exultationis.

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.

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

For the LORD is most high, awful; a great King over all the earth.

3 Subiecit populos nobis: et gentes sub pedibus nostris.

He subdueth peoples under us, and nations under our feet.

4 Elegit nobis hereditatem suam: speciem Iacob, quam dilexit.

He chooseth our inheritance for us, the pride of Jacob whom He loveth. (Selah)

5 Ascendit Deus in iubilo: et Dominus in voce tubæ.

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

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

Sing praises to God, sing praises; sing praises unto our King, sing praises.

7 Quoniam Rex omnis terræ Deus: psallite sapienter.

For God is the King of all the earth; sing ye praises in a skilful song.

8 Regnabit Deus super gentes: Deus sedet super sedem sanctam suam.

God reigneth over the nations; God sitteth upon His holy throne.

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

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.
