Psalms 47

Clap Your Hands, All You Peoples

1To the choirmaster. Of the sons of Korah. A Psalm.

2All the peoples, clap the palm; shout to God with the voice of joyful song.
3For the LORD Most High^a is awesome, a great King over all the earth.
4He subdues peoples under us, and nations under our feet.
5He chooses for us our inheritance, the pride of Jacob whom He loves. Selah.
6God has gone up with a shout, the LORD with the voice of a shofar.
7Sing praises to God, sing praises; sing praises to our King, sing praises.
8For God is King of all the earth; sing praises with understanding.
9God reigns over nations; God sits upon the throne of His holiness.
10The nobles of peoples are gathered, the people of the God of Abraham; for to God belong the shields of the earth; He is greatly exalted.
