至高的主宰

可拉后裔的诗,交给乐长。

47 万民啊,你们要鼓掌,
向上帝高声欢呼!
因为至高者耶和华当受敬畏,
祂是普天下的大君王。
祂使列国降服于我们,
让列邦伏在我们脚下。
祂为我们选定产业,
就是祂所爱的雅各引以为荣的产业。(细拉)

在欢呼声中,上帝登上宝座;
在号角声中,耶和华登上宝座。
要颂赞,颂赞上帝!
要颂赞,颂赞我们的君王!
因为上帝是普天下的君王,
要向祂唱赞美的乐章。
祂坐在圣洁的宝座上治理列国。
列邦的首领聚集在一起,
要做亚伯拉罕之上帝的子民,
因为上帝是主宰天下的君王,
祂至高无上。

Psalm 47

For the music leader. A psalm of the Korahites.

47 Clap your hands, all you people!
    Shout joyfully to God with a joyous shout!
Because the Lord Most High is awesome,
    he is the great king of the whole world.
He subdues the nations under us,
    subdues all people beneath our feet.
He chooses our inheritance for us:
    the heights of Jacob, which he loves. Selah

God has gone up with a joyous shout—
    the Lord with the blast of the ram’s horn.
Sing praises to God! Sing praises!
    Sing praises to our king! Sing praises
    because God is king of the whole world!
    Sing praises with a song of instruction![a]

God is king over the nations.
    God sits on his holy throne.
The leaders of all people are gathered
    with the people of Abraham’s God
    because the earth’s guardians belong to God;
        God is exalted beyond all.
