Col. 1:17
And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together.
Psalm 47
Clap your hands, all peoples!
Shout to God with loud songs of joy!
2
For the Lord, the Most High, is to be feared,
a great king over all the earth.
3
He subdued peoples under us,
and nations under our feet.
4
He chose our heritage for us,
the pride of Jacob whom he loves. Selah
5
God has gone up with a shout,
the Lord with the sound of a trumpet.
6
Sing praises to God, sing praises!
Sing praises to our King, sing praises!
7
For God is the King of all the earth;
sing praises with a psalm![a]
8
God reigns over the nations;
God sits on his holy throne.
9
The princes of the peoples gather
as the people of the God of Abraham.
For the shields of the earth belong to God; he is highly exalted!
