< Psalms 24 >
1 A Psalm of David. The earth is the LORD'S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
【主的榮耀】大地和其中的萬物,屬於上主,世界和其間的居民,屬於上主。
2 For He hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.
是祂在海洋上奠定了大地,是祂在江河上建立了世界。
3 Who shall ascend into the mountain of the LORD? and who shall stand in His holy place?
誰能上登天主的聖山?誰能居留在祂的聖殿?
4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not taken My name in vain, and hath not sworn deceitfully.
是那手潔心清,不慕虛幻的人,是那不發假誓,不行欺騙的人。
5 He shall receive a blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
他必獲得上主的祝福;他必獲得天主的酬報。
6 Such is the generation of them that seek after Him, that seek Thy face, even Jacob. (Selah)
這樣的人是尋求上主的苖裔,追求雅各伯天主儀容的子息。
7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates, and be ye lifted up, ye everlasting doors; that the King of glory may come in.
城門,請提高你們的門楣,古老的門戶,請加大門扉,因為要歡迎光榮的君王。
8 'Who is the King of glory?' 'The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.'
誰是這位光榮的君主?就是英勇大能的上主,是那有力作戰的天主。
9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates, yea, lift them up, ye everlasting doors; that the King of glory may come in.
城門,請提高高你的門楣,古老的門戶,請加大門扉,因為要歡迎光榮的君王,
10 'Who then is the King of glory?' 'The LORD of hosts; He is the King of glory.' (Selah)
誰是這位光榮的君主?這位光榮的君主,就是萬軍之軍的上主。
