1(47) For the end, a Psalm for the sons of Core. Clap your hands, all you⌃ nations; shout to God with a voice of exultation.
1For the Chief Musician. By the sons of Korah. According to Alamoth. God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
2For the Lord most high is terrible; [he is] a great king over all the earth.
2Therefore we won’t be afraid, though the earth changes, though the mountains are shaken into the heart of the seas;
3He has subdued the peoples under us, and the nations under our feet.
3though its waters roar and are troubled, though the mountains tremble with their swelling. Selah.
4He has chosen out his inheritance for us, the beauty of Jacob which he loved. Pause.
4There is a river, the streams of which make the city of God glad, the holy place of the tents of the Most High.
5God is gone up with a shout, the Lord with a sound of a trumpet.
5God is within her. She shall not be moved. God will help her at dawn.
6Sing praises to our God, sing praises: sing praises to our King, sing praises.
6The nations raged. The kingdoms were moved. He lifted his voice and the earth melted.
7For God is king of all the earth: sing praises with understanding.
7Yahweh of Armies is with us. The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
8God reigns over the nations: God sits upon the throne of his holiness.
8Come, see Yahweh’s works, what desolations he has made in the earth.
9The rulers of the people are assembled with the God of Abraam: for God's mighty ones of the earth have been greatly exalted.
9He makes wars cease to the end of the earth. He breaks the bow, and shatters the spear. He burns the chariots in the fire.
