Psalms 24

1 Of David. A Psalm. The earth is Jehovah's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

A Psalm. Of David. The earth is the Lord's, with all its wealth; the world and all the people living in it.

2 For it was he that founded it upon seas, and established it upon floods.

For by him it was based on the seas, and made strong on the deep rivers.

3 Who shall ascend into the mount of Jehovah? and who shall stand in his holy place?

Who may go up into the hill of the Lord? and who may come into his holy place?

4 He that hath blameless hands and a pure heart; who lifteth not up his soul unto vanity, nor sweareth deceitfully:

He who has clean hands and a true heart; whose desire has not gone out to foolish things, who has not taken a false oath.

5 He shall receive blessing from Jehovah, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

He will have blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

6 This is the generation of them that seek unto him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. (Selah)

This is the generation of those whose hearts are turned to you, even to your face, O God of Jacob. (Selah)

7 Lift up your heads, ye gates, and be ye lifted up, ye everlasting doors, and the King of glory shall come in.

Let your heads be lifted up, O doors; be lifted up, O you eternal doors: that the King of glory may come in.

8 Who is this King of glory? Jehovah strong and mighty, Jehovah mighty in battle.

Who is the King of glory? The Lord of strength and power, the Lord strong in war.

9 Lift up your heads, ye gates; yea, lift up, ye everlasting doors, and the King of glory shall come in.

Let your heads be lifted up, O doors; let them be lifted up, O you eternal doors: that the King of glory may come in.

10 Who is he, this King of glory? Jehovah of hosts, he is the King of glory. (Selah)

Who is the King of glory? The Lord of armies, he is the King of glory. (Selah)
