[ Read](/kjv/psalms/47)[ Commentary](/study/psalms/47)[ Interlinear](/interlinear/psalms/47) Audio

 1 O clap your hands, all ye people; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.*

 2 For the LORD most high *is* terrible; *he is* a great King over all the earth.

 3 He shall subdue the people under us, and the nations under our feet.

 4 He shall choose our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved. Selah.

 5 God is gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet.

 6 Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises.

 7 For God *is* the King of all the earth: sing ye praises with understanding.*

 8 God reigneth over the heathen: God sitteth upon the throne of his holiness.

 9 The princes of the people are gathered together, *even* the people of the God of Abraham: for the shields of the earth *belong* unto God: he is greatly exalted.*
