Psalms 47

Lexham English Bible

1

All you peoples, clap your hands. Shout to God with a voice of rejoicing.

For Yahweh Most High is awesome, a great king over all the earth.

3

He subdues peoples under us and nations under our feet.

4

He chooses for us our inheritance, the pride of Jacob whom he loves.

5

God has gone up with a shout, Yahweh with the sound of a trumpet.

6

Sing praises to God, sing praises. Sing praises to our king, sing praises.

7

For God is king of all the earth. Sing praises with understanding.

8

God reigns over nations; God sits on his holy throne.

9

The princes of the peoples are gathered together with the people of Abraham’s God. For the shields of the earth belong to God. He is very exalted.
