For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.
47:1Oh clap your hands, all ye peoples;
Shout unto God with the voice of triumph.
47:2For Jehovah Most High is terrible;
He is a great King over all the earth.
47:3He subdueth peoples under us,
And nations under our feet.
47:4He chooseth our inheritance for us,
The glory of Jacob whom he loved.
47:5God is gone up with a shout,
Jehovah with the sound of a trumpet.
47:6Sing praise to God, sing praises:
Sing praises unto our King, sing praises.
47:7For God is the King of all the earth:
Sing ye praises with understanding.
47:8God reigneth over the nations:
God sitteth upon his holy throne.
47:9The 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.
