Psalm 47

God Is King over All the Earth

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of the Sons of Korah.

1 Clap your hands, all peoples! Shout to God with loud songs of joy! (1Sa 10:24; 2Ki 11:12; Ps 95:1; Isa 55:12; Na 3:19) 

2 For the LORD, the Most High, is to be feared, a great king over all the earth. (De 7:21; Ps 66:3; Ps 66:5; Ps 68:35; Mal 1:14) 

3 He subdued peoples under us, and nations under our feet. (Ps 18:47) 

4 He chose our heritage for us, the pride of Jacob whom he loves. Selah (Ps 2:8; Am 6:8; Am 8:7; Na 2:2; 1Pe 1:4) 

5 God has gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet. (2Sa 6:15; Ps 68:18) 

6 Sing praises to God, sing praises! Sing praises to our King, sing praises! 

7 For God is the King of all the earth; sing praises with a psalm! (Zec 14:9; 1Co 14:15) 

8 God reigns over the nations; God sits on his holy throne. (1Ch 16:31; Ps 22:28) 

9 The princes of the peoples gather as the people of the God of Abraham. For the shields of the earth belong to God; he is highly exalted! (Ps 72:11; Ps 89:18; Isa 49:7; Isa 49:23)

Psalm 47

Louis Segond 1910

1 Au chef des chantres. Des fils de Koré. Psaume. 

2 Vous tous, peuples, battez des mains! Poussez vers Dieu des cris de joie! 

3 Car l'Éternel, le Très Haut, est redoutable, Il est un grand roi sur toute la terre. 

4 Il nous assujettit des peuples, Il met des nations sous nos pieds; 

5 Il nous choisit notre héritage, La gloire de Jacob qu'il aime. -Pause. 

6 Dieu monte au milieu des cris de triomphe, L'Éternel s'avance au son de la trompette. 

7 Chantez à Dieu, chantez! Chantez à notre roi, chantez! 

8 Car Dieu est roi de toute la terre: Chantez un cantique! 

9 Dieu règne sur les nations, Dieu a pour siège son saint trône. 

10 Les princes des peuples se réunissent Au peuple du Dieu d'Abraham; Car à Dieu sont les boucliers de la terre: Il est souverainement élevé.
