King James Version (1611 Edition)
Psalms 47
1 [To the chiefe musician, a psalme for the sonnes of Korah.] O Clap your hands (all ye people:) shoute vnto God with the voyce of triumph: 2 For the Lord most high is terrible; he is a great King ouer all the earth. 3 Hee shall subdue the people vnder vs, and the nations vnder our feet. 4 He shall chuse our inheritance for vs, the excellencie of Iacob whom hee loued. Selah.
5 God is gone vp with a shout, the Lord with the sound of a trumpet. 6 Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises vnto our King, sing praises. 7 For God is the King of all the earth, sing ye praises with vnderstanding. 8 God reigneth ouer the heathen: God sitteth vpon the throne of his holinesse. 9 The princes of the people are gathered together, euen the people of the God of Abraham: for the shields of the earth belong vnto God: hee is greatly exalted.
