PSALM Forty Seven

For the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah. A psalm.
1
Clap your hands, all you nations;
    shout to God with cries of joy.
2
For the Lord Most High is awesome,
    the great King over all the earth.
3
He subdued nations under us,
    peoples under our feet.
4
He chose our inheritance for us,
    the pride of Jacob, whom he loved.
5
God has ascended amid shouts of joy,
    the Lord amid the sounding of trumpets.
6
Sing praises to God, sing praises;
    sing praises to our King, sing praises.
7
For God is the 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 assemble
    as the people of the God of Abraham,
for the kings of the earth belong to God;
    he is greatly exalted.
