Psalm 47

posted 30 Jan 2014, 01:38 by Ben@theorderoftheblacksheep.com
Clap your hands, all of you;
    raise your voices joyfully and loudly.
Give honor for the True God of the universe;
2 Here’s why: The Eternal, the Most High, is awesome and deserves our great respect.
    He is the great King over everything in this world.
3 He’s helped us win wars, suppressed our enemies,
    and made nations bow at our feet.
4 He decides the extent of our inheritance and selects the land where we and our children will live,
    for we are the pride of Jacob, the ones He loves.

[pause][a]

5 The True God ascends the throne acclaimed by shouts of the people.
    The Eternal is announced by the blast of a trumpet.
6 Sing! Shout! Play instruments!
    Praise our God and King; sing praises to Him who is worthy.
7 For He is the King of all the earth. Sing praise, all who can.
    Put words to music, and then sing praises
8 At the feet of the God who sits on His holy throne,
    ruling over all the nations.
9 All those with influence in this world—princes, kings, and satraps—
    gather with those who follow Abraham’s God.
For these defenders belong to God
    who reigns over the nations!
