Psalm 47
The nations are exhorted to entertain the kingdom of Christ.


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[1]; he is a great King[2] over all the earth.

3 He shall subdue the people under us[3], and the nations under our feet.

4 He shall choose our inheritance[4] for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved. Selah.

5 God is gone up[5] 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[6]: sing ye praises with understanding[7].

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.
