Psalm 47
Omnes gentes, plaudite
1
O clap your hands together, all ye people *
O sing unto God with the voice of melody.
2
For the Lord is high, and to be feared *
he is the great King upon all the earth.
3
He shall subdue the people under us *
and the nations under our feet.
4
He shall choose out an heritage for us *
even the worship of Jacob, whom he loved.
5
God is gone up with a merry noise *
and the Lord with the sound of the trump.
6
O sing praises, sing praises unto our God *
O sing praises, sing praises unto our King.
7
For God is the King of all the earth *
sing ye praises with understanding.
8
God reigneth over the heathen *
God sitteth upon his holy seat.
9
The princes of the people are joined unto the people of the God of Abraham *
for God, which is very high exalted, doth defend the earth, as it were with a shield.
