Psalms 47

God, the King of the World

For the director of music. A psalm of the sons of Korah.

1 Clap your hands, all you people.
    Shout to God with joy.
2 The Lord Most High is wonderful.
    He is the great King over all the earth!
3 He defeated nations for us
    and put them under our control.
4 He chose the land we would inherit.
    We are the children of Jacob, whom he loved. Selah

5 God has risen with a shout of joy;
    the Lord has risen as the trumpets sounded.
6 Sing praises to God. Sing praises.
    Sing praises to our King. Sing praises.
7 God is King of all the earth,
    so sing a song of praise to him.
8 God is King over the nations.
    God sits on his holy throne.
9 The leaders of the nations meet
    with the people of the God of Abraham,
because the leaders of the earth belong to God.
    He is supreme.
