Psalm 47
For the choir director; a psalm by Korah’s descendants.
1Clap your hands, all you people.
Shout to God with a loud, joyful song.
2We must fear the Lord, the Most High.
He is the great king of the whole earth.
3He brings people under our authority
and ⌞puts⌟ nations under our feet.
4He chooses our inheritance for us,
the pride of Jacob, whom he loved. Selah
5God has gone up with a joyful shout.
The Lord has gone up with the sound of a ram’s horn.
6Make music to praise God.
Play music for him!
Make music to praise our king.
Play music for him!
7God is the king of the whole earth.
Make your best music for him!
8God rules the nations.
He sits upon his holy throne.
9The influential people from the nations gather together
as the people of the God of Abraham.
The rulers of the earth belong to God.
He rules everything.

47
To the Overseer. — By sons of Korah. A Psalm.
1All ye peoples, clap the hand, Shout to God with a voice of singing,
2For Jehovah Most High [is] fearful, A great king over all the earth.
3He leadeth peoples under us, and nations under our feet.
4He doth choose for us our inheritance, The excellency of Jacob that He loves. Selah.
5God hath gone up with a shout, Jehovah with the sound of a trumpet.
6Praise God — praise — give praise to our king, praise.
7For king of all the earth [is] God, Give praise, O understanding one.
8God hath reigned over nations, God hath sat on His holy throne,
9Nobles of peoples have been gathered, [With] the people of the God of Abraham, For to God [are] the shields of earth, Greatly hath He been exalted!
