Psalms 47

1 For the Chief Musician; a Psalm of the sons of Korah. O clap your hands, all ye peoples; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.

In finem, pro filiis Core. Psalmus. Omnes gentes, plaudite manibus; jubilate Deo in voce exsultationis:

2 For the LORD Most High is terrible; he is a great King over all the earth.

quoniam Dominus excelsus, terribilis, rex magnus super omnem terram.

3 He shall subdue the peoples under us, and the nations under our feet.

Subjecit populos nobis, et gentes sub pedibus nostris.

4 He shall choose our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved. (Selah)

Elegit nobis hæreditatem suam; speciem Jacob quam dilexit.

5 God is gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet.

Ascendit Deus in jubilo, et Dominus in voce tubæ.

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

Psallite Deo nostro, psallite; psallite regi nostro, psallite:

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

quoniam rex omnis terræ Deus, psallite sapienter.

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

Regnabit Deus super gentes; Deus sedet super sedem sanctam suam.

9 The 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.

Principes populorum congregati sunt cum Deo Abraham, quoniam dii fortes terræ vehementer elevati sunt.
