Psalms 47

NEW JERUSALEM	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 [For the choirmaster Of the sons of Korah Psalm] Clap your hands, all peoples, acclaim God withshouts of joy.	1 Unto the end, for the sons of Core.
2 For Yahweh, the Most High, is glorious, the great king over al the earth.	2 O clap your hands, all ye nations: shout unto God with the voice of Joy,
3 He brings peoples under our yoke and nations under our feet.	3 For the Lord is high, terrible: a great king over all the earth.
4 He chooses for us our birthright, the pride of Jacob whom he loves.Pause	4 He hath subdued the people under us; and the nations under our feet.
5 God goes up to shouts of acclaim, Yahweh to a fanfare on the ram's horn.	5 He hath chosen for us his inheritance the beauty of Jacob which he hath loved.
6 Let the music sound for our God, let it sound, let the music sound for our king, let it sound.	6 God is ascended with jubilee, and the Lord with the sound of trumpet.
7 For he is king of the whole world; learn the music, let it sound for God!	7 Sing praises to our God, sing ye: sing praises to our king, sing ye.
8 God reigns over the nations, seated on his holy throne.	8 For God is the king of all the earth: sing ye wisely.
9 The leaders of the nations ral y to the people of the God of Abraham. The shields of the earth belongto God, who is exalted on high.	9 God shall reign over the nations: God sitteth on his holy throne.
	10 The princes of the people are gathered together, with the God of Abraham: for the strong gods of the earth are exceedingly exalted.
