Psalms 47:1-6

Psalm 47

For the music director; by the Korahites; a psalm.

47:1 All you nations, clap your hands!

Shout out to God in celebration!

47:2 For the sovereign Lord is awe-inspiring;

he is the great king who rules the whole earth!

47:3 He subdued nations beneath us

and countries under our feet.

47:4 He picked out for us a special land

to be a source of pride for Jacob, whom he loves. (Selah)

47:5 God has ascended his throne amid loud shouts;

the Lord has ascended his throne amid the blaring of ram’s horns.

47:6 Sing to God! Sing!

Sing to our king! Sing!
