- Chapter 47 -

Clap your hands, all you nations

TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF THE SONS OF KORAH. All you peoples, clap the hand, || Shout to God with a voice of singing,

For YHWH Most High [is] fearful, || A great King over all the earth.

He leads peoples under us, and nations under our feet.

He chooses for us our inheritance, || The excellence of Jacob that He loves. Selah.

God has gone up with a shout, || YHWH with the sound of a horn.

Praise God—praise—give praise to our king, praise.

For God [is] King of all the earth, || Give praise, O understanding one.

God has reigned over nations, God has sat on His holy throne,

Nobles of peoples have been gathered, || [With] the people of the God of Abraham, || For the shields of earth [are] to God, || Greatly has He been exalted!

Clap your hands, all you nations

Oh clap your hands, all you nations. Shout to God with the voice of triumph!

For the LORD Most High is awesome. He is a great King over all the earth.

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

He chooses our inheritance for us, the glory of Jacob whom he loved. Selah.

God has gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet.

Sing praises to God! Sing praises! Sing praises to our King! Sing praises!

For God is the King of all the earth. Sing praises with understanding.

God reigns over the nations. God sits on his holy throne.

The princes of the peoples are gathered together, the people of the God of Abraham. For the shields of the earth belong to God. He is greatly exalted!
