- Chapter 47 -

Clap your hands, all you nations

Unto the end, for the sons of Core.

O clap your hands, all ye nations: shout unto God with the voice of Joy,

For the Lord is high, terrible: a great king over all the earth.

He hath subdued the people under us; and the nations under our feet.

He hath chosen for us his inheritance the beauty of Jacob which he hath loved.

God is ascended with jubilee, and the Lord with the sound of trumpet.

Sing praises to our God, sing ye: sing praises to our king, sing ye.

For God is the king of all the earth: sing ye wisely.

God shall reign over the nations: God sitteth on his holy throne.

The princes of the people are gathered together, with the God of Abraham: for the strong gods of the earth are exceedingly 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!
