Psalm 47:1-9

To the director. Of the sons of Korʹah.+ A melody. 47  All you peoples, clap your hands. Shout in triumph to God with joyful cries.  2  For Jehovah the Most High is awe-inspiring;+He is the great King over all the earth.+  3  He subdues peoples under us;He puts nations under our feet.+  4  He chooses our inheritance for us,+The pride of Jacob, whom he loves.+ (Selah)  5  God has ascended amid joyful shouting;Jehovah, amid the sound of the horn.*  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, and show insight.  8  God has become King over the nations.+ God sits on his holy throne.  9  The leaders of the peoples have gathered togetherWith the people of the God of Abraham. For the rulers* of the earth belong to God. He is highly exalted.+
