Psalms 47

Psalm 47 ESV

The nations are exhorted to cheerfully entertain the kingdom of Christ.
To the choirmaster. A Psalm of 1the Sons of Korah.
1 1Clap your hands, all peoples! 2Shout to God with loud songs of joy!
2 For the Lord, the Most High, 1is to be feared, 2a great king over all the earth.
3 He 1subdued peoples under us, and nations under our feet.
4 He chose our 1heritage for us, 2the pride of Jacob whom he loves. Selah
5 God 1has gone up with a shout, the Lord with the sound of a trumpet.
6 Sing praises to God, sing praises! Sing praises to our King, sing praises!
7 For God is 1the King of all the earth; sing praises 2with a psalm!a
8 God 1reigns over the nations; God sits on his holy throne.
9 1The princes of the peoples gather as the people of the God of Abraham. For 2the shields of the earth belong to God; he is highly exalted!
