Psalm 46
Ψαλμοί
Psalm 47 in the Hebrew numbering, which most Western Bibles follow.
1 Εἰς τὸ τέλος· ὑπὲρ τῶν υἱῶν Κορὲ ψαλμός.
(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.
2 ΠΑΝΤΑ τὰ ἔθνη κροτήσατε χεῖρας, ἀλαλάξατε τῷ Θεῷ ἐν φωνῇ ἀγαλλιάσεως.
In the English, this verse is part of verse 1.
3 ὅτι Κύριος ὕψιστος, φοβερός, βασιλεὺς μέγας ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν.
For the Lord most high is terrible; [he is] a great king over all the earth. (verse 2 in Brenton's English)
4 ὑπέταξε λαοὺς ἡμῖν καὶ ἔθνη ὑπὸ τοὺς πόδας ἡμῶν·
He has subdued the peoples under us, and the nations under our feet. (verse 3 in Brenton's English)
5 ἐξελέξατο ἡμῖν τὴν κληρονομίαν αὐτοῦ, τὴν καλλονὴν Ἰακώβ, ἣν ἠγάπησεν. (διάψαλμα).
He has chosen out his inheritance for us, the beauty of Jacob which he loved. Pause. (verse 4 in Brenton's English)
6 ἀνέβη ὁ Θεὸς ἐν ἀλαλαγμῷ, Κύριος ἐν φωνῇ σάλπιγγος.
God is gone up with a shout, the Lord with a sound of a trumpet. (verse 5 in Brenton's English)
7 ψάλατε τῷ Θεῷ ἡμῶν, ψάλατε, ψάλατε τῷ βασιλεῖ ἡμῶν, ψάλατε,
Sing praises to our God, sing praises: sing praises to our King, sing praises. (verse 6 in Brenton's English)

God reigns over the nations: God sits upon the throne of his holiness. (verse 8 in Brenton's English)
10 ἄρχοντες λαῶν συνήχθησαν μετὰ τοῦ Θεοῦ Ἁβραάμ, ὅτι τοῦ Θεοῦ οἱ κραταιοὶ τῆς γῆς σφόδρα ἐπήρθησαν.
The rulers of the people are assembled with the God of Abraam: for God's mighty ones of the earth have been greatly exalted. (verse 9 in Brenton's English)
