Psalms 47 BSB

Book

Chapter

1 For the choirmaster. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. Clap your hands, all you peoples; shout unto God with a voice of triumph.

2 How awesome is the LORD Most High, the great King over all the earth!

3 He subdues nations beneath us, and peoples under our feet.

4 He chooses our inheritance for us, the pride of Jacob, whom He loves. Selah

5 God has ascended amid shouts of joy, the LORD with 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 to Him a psalm of praise.

8 God reigns over the nations; God is seated on His holy throne.

9 The nobles of the nations have assembled as the people of the God of Abraham; for the shields of the earth belong to God; He is highly exalted.
