Psalms 47. Omnes gentes, plaudite.
CLAP your hands together, all ye peoples: * 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 peoples under us, * and the nations under
our feet.
4 He shall choose out an heritage for us, * even the excellency
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 nations; * God sitteth upon his holy
seat.
9 The princes of the peoples 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.
