Psalm 47
God Our King
For the choir director. A psalm of the sons of Korah.
1Clap your hands, all you peoples;
shout to God with a jubilant cry.
2For the Lord, the Most High, is awe-inspiring,
a great King over the whole earth.
3He subdues peoples under us
and nations under our feet.
4He chooses for us our inheritance —
the pride of Jacob, whom he loves.Selah
5God ascends among shouts of joy,
the Lord, with the sound of a ram’s horn.
6Sing praise to God, sing praise;
sing praise to our King, sing praise!
7Sing a song of wisdom,
for God is King of the whole earth.
8God reigns over the nations;
God is seated on his holy throne.
9The nobles of the peoples have assembled
with the people of the God of Abraham.
For the leaders of the earth belong to God;
he is greatly exalted.
