歌颂 神是全地的王

可拉子孙的诗,交给诗班长。

47 万民哪!你们都要鼓掌,

要向 神欢声呼喊;

因为耶和华至高者是可敬畏的,

他是统治全地的大君王。

他要使万民臣服在我们之下,

使列国臣服在我们的脚下。

他为我们选择了我们的产业,

就是他所爱的雅各的荣耀。

(细拉)

 神在欢呼声中上升,

耶和华在号角声中上升。

你们要歌颂,歌颂 神;

你们要歌颂,歌颂我们的王。

因为 神是全地的王,

你们要用诗歌歌颂他。

 神作王统治列国,

 神坐在他的圣宝座上。

万民中的显贵都聚集起来,

要作亚伯拉罕的 神的子民;

因为地上的君王(“君王”原文作“盾牌”)都归顺 神;

他被尊为至高。

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)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.
