Psalm 47
The sons of Korah wrote this psalm for the music leader.
God rules over all the earth
1People from every nation,
clap your hands together.
Shout aloud to God,
with the sound of happy songs.
2The Lord, the Most High God, is wonderful.
He is the great King
who rules over the whole earth.
3He has won the battle against our enemies,
and those nations are now under our power.
4He chose a special land to belong to us.
Jacob's descendants are proud of that land.
They are his own people that he loves.
5God has gone up to sit on his throne,
while the people shout aloud.
The Lord has gone up there,
while the trumpets make a loud noise.
6Sing to praise God! Yes, sing!
Sing to praise our king! Sing!
7God is the King who rules over the whole earth!
So sing a special song to praise him!
8God rules over the nations.
God is sitting on his holy throne.
9The leaders of the nations have met together.
They have joined with the people who serve Abraham's God. #47:9 Abraham was the first ancestor of the Israelite nation, and of other nations. He was the father of Isaac and the grandfather of Jacob. People from all nations, who are not descendants of Abraham, have joined with the Israelites to worship the Lord.
God has authority over all the world's rulers
and their armies.
Everyone should praise him,
for he is great!
