The Psalms 47


God Is the King of All the Earth
To the chief Musician, A Psalm for the sons of Korah.

1  O clap your hands, all ye people;
        
shout unto God with the voice of triumph.
2  For the LORD most high is terrible;
        
he is a great King over all the earth.
3  He shall subdue the people under us,
        
and the nations under our feet.
4  He shall choose our inheritance for us,
        
the excellency of Jacob whom he loved.
Selah.
5  God is gone up with a shout,
        
the LORD with the sound of a trumpet.
6  Sing praises to God, sing praises:
        
sing praises unto our King, sing praises.
7  For God is the King of all the earth:
        
sing ye praises with understanding.
8  God reigneth over the heathen:
        
God sitteth upon the throne of his holiness.
9  The princes of the people are gathered together,
        
even the people of the God of Abraham:
for the shields of the earth belong unto God:
he is greatly exalted.
