Psalm 47

Psalm 47

For the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah. A psalm.

​Clap your hands, everyone!  Every nation!
Shout with joy in proclaiming God’s worth!
For the LORD, the Most High — he is awesome;
he’s the King over all of the earth.

​He subdues all the people before us,
and the nations beneath us are placed.
He has chosen our heritage for us,
which was Jacob’s, whom he has embraced.
[Selah]

God ascends to his throne with glad shouting,
and the LORD, with the blast of horns raised.
Sing your praises to God, sing your praises!
Sing your praises; may our King be praised!

For our God is the King of the world;
sing a psalm wherein wisdom is shown.
It is God who reigns over the nations;
God is seated on his holy throne.

And the nobles of nations have gathered
with the people of Abraham’s God.
For the kings of the earth​​ have surrendered;
God is highly exalted and awed.
