< Psalms 24 >

1 The earth is Yhwh's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
For the First Sabbath. A Psalm of David. The earth and all its fullness belong to the Lord: the whole world and all that dwells in it.
2 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.
For he has founded it upon the seas, and he has prepared it upon the rivers.
3 Who shall ascend into the hill of Yhwh? or who shall stand in his holy place?
Who will ascend to the mountain of the Lord? And who will stand in his holy place?
4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.
The innocent of hands and the clean of heart, who has not received his soul in vain, nor sworn deceitfully to his neighbor.
5 He shall receive the blessing from Yhwh, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
He will receive a blessing from the Lord, and mercy from God, his Savior.
6 This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. (Selah)
This is the generation that seeks him, that seeks the face of the God of Jacob.
7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.
Lift up your gates, you princes, and be lifted up, eternal gates. And the King of Glory shall enter.
8 Who is this King of glory? Yhwh strong and mighty, Yhwh mighty in battle.
Who is this King of Glory? The Lord who is strong and powerful; the Lord powerful in battle.
9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.
Lift up your gates, you princes, and be lifted up, eternal gates. And the King of Glory shall enter.
10 Who is this King of glory? Yhwh of Armies, he is the King of glory. (Selah)
Who is this King of Glory? The Lord of virtue. He himself is the King of Glory.
