Psalms 47

Clap Your Hands, All You Peoples

For the choirmaster. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.
Clap your hands, all you peoples;
shout unto God with a voice of triumph.
2  How awesome is the LORD Most High,
the great King over all the earth!
3  He subdues nations beneath us,
and peoples under our feet.
4  He chooses our inheritance for us,
the pride of Jacob, whom He loves.
Selah
5  God has ascended amid shouts of joy,
the LORD with the sound of the horn.
6  Sing praises to God, sing praises;
sing praises to our King, sing praises!
7  For God is King of all the earth;
sing to Him a psalm of praise.*
8  God reigns over the nations;
God is seated on His holy throne.
9  The nobles of the nations have assembled
as the people of the God of Abraham;
for the shields of the earth belong to God;
He is highly exalted.
