Psalm 47
Smith's Literal Translation Par ▾ 

Clap Your Hands, All You Peoples

1To the overseer, to the son of Korah: chanting. All peoples ye shall clap the hand; shout to God with the voice of rejoicing.

2For Jehovah the Most High is terrible; a great King over all the earth.

3He will speak the peoples under us, and the nations under our feet.

4He will choose for us our inheritance, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved. Silence.

5God went up with a shout, Jehovah with the voice of a trumpet.

6Play on the harp to God, play on the harp to our King; play on the harp.

7For God is King of all the earth: play on the harp from understanding.

8God reigned over the nations; God sat upon his holy throne.

9The nobles of the peoples were gathered together, the people of the God of Abraham: for to God the shields of the earth: he was lifted up greatly.
