Psalms

47

Amplified Bible

1 To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. O clap your hands, all you people; Shout to God with the voice of triumph and songs of joy.

2 For the LORD Most High is to be feared [and worshiped with awe-inspired reverence and obedience]; He is a great King over all the earth.

3 He subdues peoples under us And nations under our feet.

4 He chooses our inheritance for us, The glory and excellence of Jacob whom He loves. Selah.

5 God has ascended amid shouting, The LORD with the sound of a trumpet.

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 praises in a skillful psalm and with understanding.

8 God reigns over the nations; God sits on His holy throne.

9 The princes of the people have gathered together as the people of the God of Abraham, For the shields of the earth belong to God; He is highly exalted.
