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.
