Psalms 47
47
The King over All the Earth
For the Pure and Shining One by the prophetic singers of Korah’s clan
A poetic song
1Go ahead and celebrate!
Come on and clap your hands, everyone!
Shout to God with the raucous sounds of joy!
2The Lord God Most High is astonishing, awesome beyond words!
He’s the formidable and powerful King over all the earth.
3He’s the one who conquered the nations before us
and placed them all under our feet.
4He’s marked out our inheritance ahead of time,
putting us in the front of the line, honoring Jacob, the one he loves. # 47:4 Or “the pride of Jacob.” The Septuagint reads “the beauty of Jacob.”
Pause in his presence
5God arises with the earsplitting shout of his people!
God goes up with a trumpet blast!
6Sing and celebrate! Sing some more, celebrate some more!
Sing your highest song of praise to our King!
7For God is the triumphant King; all the powers of the earth are his.
So sing your celebration songs of highest praise
to the glorious Enlightened One!
8Our God reigns over every nation.
He reigns on his holy throne over all.
9All the nobles and princes,
the loving servants of the God of Abraham,
they all gather to worship.
Every warrior’s shield is now lowered
as surrendered trophies before this King.
He has taken his throne, high and lofty, exalted over all!

1 A Canticle Psalm. To the sons of Korah, on the second Sabbath.
2 The Lord is great and exceedingly praiseworthy, in the city of our God, on his holy mountain.
3 Mount Zion is being founded with the exultation of the whole earth, on the north side, the city of the great king.
4 In her houses, God will be known, since he will support her.
5 For behold, the kings of the earth have been gathered together; they have convened as one.
6 Such did they see, and they were astonished: they were disturbed, they were moved.
7 Trembling took hold of them. In that place, their pains were that of a woman in labor.
8 With a vehement spirit, you will crush the ships of Tarshish.
9 As we have heard, so we have seen, in the city of the Lord of hosts, in the city of our God. God has founded it in eternity.
10 We have received your mercy, O God, in the midst of your temple.
11 According to your name, O God, so does your praise reach to the ends of the earth. Your right hand is full of justice.
12 Let mount Zion rejoice, and let the daughters of Judah exult, because of your judgments, O Lord.
13 Encircle Zion and embrace her. Discourse in her towers.
14 Set your hearts on her virtue. And distribute her houses, so that you may discourse of it in another generation.
15 For this is God, our God, in eternity and forever and ever. He will rule us forever.
