Psalms 47:1-5
11All you nations, clap your hands! Shout out to God in celebration!
2For the sovereign Lord is awe-inspiring; he is the great king who rules the whole earth!
3He subdued nations beneath us and countries under our feet.
4He picked out for us a special land to be a source of pride for Jacob, whom he loves. (Selah)
5God has ascended his throne amid loud shouts; the Lord has ascended his throne amid the blaring of ram’s horns.
