Psalms 47
47
For the music director. A psalm of the sons of Korah.
1Everyone, clap your hands! Shout with joy to the Lord!
2For the Lord Most High is awe-inspiring; he is the great King of all the earth.
3He subdues other peoples under us; he puts nations under our feet.
4He chose the land for us to own; the proud possession of Jacob's descendants whom he loves. Selah.
5God ascends his throne#47:5. Implied. with a great shout, the Lord is accompanied by the sound of the trumpet.
6Sing praises to God, sing praises; sing praises to our King, sing praises!
7For God is King of all the earth; sing praises with a psalm!
8God rules over the nations; he sits on his holy throne.
9The rulers of the nations gather together with the people of the God of Abraham, for the defenders#47:9. Literally, “shields.” of the earth belong to God. He is highly honored everywhere.
