The Holy Bible
The Book of Psalms
Psalm 47

  

God is King Over All of the Earth

For the director of music. A Psalm of the Sons of Korah.

1CLAP your hands, all you peoples;
shout to God with cries of joy.

2 For the Lord Most High is awesome;
the great King over all the earth! 3 He subdued peoples under us,
and nations under our feet. 4 He chose our inheritance for us,
the pride of Jacob, whom He loves.  Selah   5 God has ascended amid shouts of joy,
the Lord, amid the sounding of trumpets. 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 a psalm of praise.   8 God reigns over the nations;
God is seated on His holy throne. 9 The nobles of the peoples are assembled,
the people of the God of Abraham. For the guardians of the earth belong to God;
He is greatly exalted.
