A psalm written for the choir director by one of the descendants of Korah

47Verse 1You people all over the world, clap your hands for joy!Shout joyfully to praise God!^{Verse 2}Yahweh, who is much greater than any other god, is awesome;he is the king who rules over all the world!^{Verse 3}He enabled us to defeat the armies of the people-groups that lived in Canaan.
^{Verse 4}He chose for us this land where we now live;we Israeli people [MTY], whom he loves, are proud that we own this land.(Think about that!)^{Verse 5}God has gone up into his temple.The people shouted joyfully and blew trumpets as Yahweh went up.^{Verse 6}Sing songs to praise our God!Sing to praise him [DOU]!
Sing to God, our king!^{Verse 7}God is the one who rules over everything in the world;sing a psalm to him!^{Verse 8}God sits on his sacred throneas he rules over the people of all ethnic groups.^{Verse 9}The rulers of those people-groups gather as God’s people, the people descended from Abraham, do.
But God has more power than the weapons/shields of all the kings on the earth;◄he is greatly honored/people honor him► everywhere.
