耶和華為全地之君

47 可拉後裔的詩,交於伶長。

萬民哪,你們都要拍掌,要用誇勝的聲音向神呼喊!
因為耶和華至高者是可畏的,他是治理全地的大君王。
他叫萬民服在我們以下,又叫列邦服在我們腳下。
他為我們選擇產業,就是他所愛之雅各的榮耀。(細拉)
神上升,有喊聲相送;耶和華上升,有角聲相送。
你們要向神歌頌,歌頌!向我們王歌頌,歌頌!
因為神是全地的王,你們要用悟性歌頌!
神做王治理萬國,神坐在他的聖寶座上。
列邦的君王聚集,要做亞伯拉罕之神的民,因為世界的盾牌是屬神的,他為至高。

Psalm 47[a]

For the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah. A psalm.

Clap your hands,(A) all you nations;
    shout to God with cries of joy.(B)

For the Lord Most High(C) is awesome,(D)
    the great King(E) over all the earth.
He subdued(F) nations under us,
    peoples under our feet.
He chose our inheritance(G) for us,
    the pride of Jacob,(H) whom he loved.[b]

God has ascended(I) amid shouts of joy,(J)
    the Lord amid the sounding of trumpets.(K)
Sing praises(L) to God, sing praises;
    sing praises to our King, sing praises.
For God is the King of all the earth;(M)
    sing to him a psalm(N) of praise.

God reigns(O) over the nations;
    God is seated on his holy throne.(P)
The nobles of the nations assemble
    as the people of the God of Abraham,
for the kings[c] of the earth belong to God;(Q)
    he is greatly exalted.(R)
