Psalms 47

1 “To the chief musician, a psalm for the sons of Korach.” All ye people, clap your hands; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.

2 For the Lord is most high, fear-inspiring; he is a great king over all the earth.

3 He will subdue people under us, and nations under our feet.

4 He will choose for us our inheritance, the excellency of Jacob which he loveth. (Selah)

5 God ascendeth amid a triumphal shout, the Lord, amid the sound of the cornet.

6 Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises.

7 For God is King of all the earth: sing ye praises with understanding.

8 God reigneth over the nations; God sitteth upon his holy throne.

9 The nobles of the people are gathered together, [to be with] the people of the God of Abraham; for unto God belong the shields of the earth: he is greatly exalted.
