Psalms 47




1.  <<To the chief Musician * , A Psalm for the sons of Korah.>> 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 * .
