< Psalms 24 >
1 A Psalme of David. The earth is the Lordes, and all that therein is: the worlde and they that dwell therein.
THE earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
2 For he hath founded it vpon the seas: and established it vpon the floods.
For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.
3 Who shall ascende into the mountaine of the Lord? and who shall stand in his holy place?
Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in his holy place?
4 Euen he that hath innocent handes, and a pure heart: which hath not lift vp his minde vnto vanitie, nor sworne deceitfully.
He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.
5 He shall receiue a blessing from the Lord, and righteousnesse from the God of his saluation.
He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

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

9 Lift vp your heads, ye gates, and lift vp your selues, ye euerlasting doores, and the King of glorie shall come in.
Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.
