Psalm 47
For the director of music. A psalm of the Sons of Korah.
1Clap your hands, all you nations.
Shout to God with cries of joy.
2Do this because the Lord Most High is wonderful.
He is the great King over the whole earth.
3He brought nations under our control.
He made them fall under us.
4He chose our land for us.
The people of Jacob are proud of their land,
and God loves them.
5God went up to his throne while his people were shouting with joy.
The Lord went up while trumpets were playing.
6Sing praises to God. Sing praises.
Sing praises to our King. Sing praises.
7God is the King of the whole earth.
Sing a psalm of praise to him.
8God rules over the nations.
He is seated on his holy throne.
9The nobles of the nations come together.
They are now part of the people of the God of Abraham.
The kings of the earth belong to God.
He is greatly honored.
Kongen over alle konger
1Til korlederen: En sang af Koras slægt.
2Klap i hænderne af glæde, alle folkeslag!
Bryd ud i jubelråb for vor Gud!
3For Herren er Gud over alle guder,
den mægtigste hersker over hele jorden.
4Han undertvinger folkeslagene,
og lægger vore fjender for vore fødder.
5Han udvalgte et land, som han gav os.
Hans elskede folk, Israel, er stolt over at eje det.
6Gud stiger op på sin trone under jubelråb
til fanfarer fra vædderhornet.
7Lovsyng Gud, ja syng!
Lovsyng Kongen, ja syng!
8For Gud er Konge over hele jorden,
pris ham med sang!
9Han sidder på sin hellige trone,
hvorfra han regerer over alle folkeslag.
10Lad nationernes fyrster samles
og prise ham sammen med Abrahams Guds folk.
Han har autoritet over alle jordens fyrster.
Han er større end alt og alle.
