Psalms 47

   |   

God Is King over All the Earth

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of (a)the Sons of Korah.

1 (b)Clap your hands, all peoples!
    (c)Shout to God with loud songs of joy!
2 For the Lord, the Most High, (d)is to be feared,
    (e)a great king over all the earth.
3 He (f)subdued peoples under us,
    and nations under our feet.
4 He chose our (g)heritage for us,
    (h)the pride of Jacob whom he loves. Selah

5 God (i)has gone up with a shout,
    the Lord with the sound of a trumpet.
6 Sing praises to God, sing praises!
    Sing praises to our King, sing praises!
7 For God is (j)the King of all the earth;
    sing praises (k)with a psalm![a]

8 God (l)reigns over the nations;
    God sits on his holy throne.
9 (m)The princes of the peoples gather
    as the people of the God of Abraham.
For (n)the shields of the earth belong to God;
    he is highly exalted!
