Psalm 47

Gud är konung

1 För sångmästaren, en psalm av Koras söner.

2 Klappa i händerna, alla folk,
    höj jubel till Gud med fröjderop!
3 Ty Herren, den Högste, är fruktansvärd,
en stor konung över hela jorden.
4 Han lägger folk under oss,
    folkslag under våra fötter.
5 Han utväljer åt oss vår arvedel,
    Jakobs, hans älskades, stolthet. Sela.

6 Gud har farit upp under jubel,
    Herren, under basuners ljud.
7 Lovsjung Gud, lovsjung!
    Lovsjung vår konung, lovsjung!
8 Ty Gud är konung över hela jorden,
lovsjung honom med en psalm.
9 Gud är konung över hednafolken,
    Gud sitter på sin heliga tron.
10 Folkens främsta samlas
    som Abrahams Guds folk.
Ty jordens sköldar tillhör Gud,
    högt är han upphöjd.
