For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.

 ^47:1Oh clap your hands, all ye peoples;

 Shout unto God with the voice of triumph.

 He is a great King over all the earth.

 ^47:3He subdueth peoples under us,

 And nations under our feet.

 The glory of Jacob whom he loved.

 ^47:5God is gone up with a shout,

 Jehovah with the sound of a trumpet.

 Sing praises unto our King, sing praises.

 ^47:7For God is the King of all the earth:

 Sing ye praises with understanding.

 ^47:8God reigneth over the nations:

 God sitteth upon his holy throne.

 To be the people of the God of Abraham:

 For the shields of the earth belong unto God;

 He is greatly exalted.
