< Psalms 24 >
1 Of David. A Psalm. The earth is Jehovah's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
David’s. A Melody. To Yahweh, belongeth, The earth and the fulness thereof, The world, and they who dwell therein;
2 For it was he that founded it upon seas, and established it upon floods.
For, he, upon the seas, hath founded it, and upon the currents, doth make it firm.
3 Who shall ascend into the mount of Jehovah? and who shall stand in his holy place?
Who shall ascend the mountain of Yahweh? And who shall stand in his holy place?
4 He that hath blameless hands and a pure heart; who lifteth not up his soul unto vanity, nor sweareth deceitfully:
The clean of hands, and pure of heart, —who hath not uplifted, to falsehood, his soul, nor sworn deceitfully,
5 He shall receive blessing from Jehovah, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
Shall bear away a blessing from Yahweh, and righteousness, from his delivering God.
6 This is the generation of them that seek unto him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. (Selah)
This, is the generation of them who inquire of him, who seek thy 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.
Lift up, O ye gates, your heads, and lift yourselves up, ye age-abiding 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? Yahweh, strong and mighty, Yahweh, mighty in war.
9 Lift up your heads, ye gates; yea, lift up, ye everlasting doors, and the King of glory shall come in.
Lift up, O ye gates, your heads, yea lift [them] up, ye age-abiding 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 then is the king of glory? Yahweh of hosts, He, is the king of glory. (Selah)
