< Psalms 24 >

1 A PSALM OF DAVID. To YHWH [is] the earth and its fullness, The world and the inhabitants in it.
David’s. A Melody. To Yahweh, belongeth, The earth and the fulness thereof, The world, and they who dwell therein;
2 For He has founded it on the seas, And He establishes it on the floods.
For, he, upon the seas, hath founded it, and upon the currents, doth make it firm.
3 Who goes up into the hill of YHWH? And who rises up in His holy place?
Who shall ascend the mountain of Yahweh? And who shall stand in his holy place?
4 The clean of hands, and pure of heart, Who has not lifted up his soul to vanity, Nor has sworn to deceit.
The clean of hands, and pure of heart, —who hath not uplifted, to falsehood, his soul, nor sworn deceitfully,
5 He carries away a blessing from YHWH, Righteousness from the God of his salvation.
Shall bear away a blessing from Yahweh, and righteousness, from his delivering God.
6 This [is] a generation of those seeking Him. Seeking Your 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, O gates! And be lifted up, O perpetual doors! And the King of Glory comes 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—“the King of Glory?” YHWH—strong and mighty, YHWH, the mighty in battle.
Who is the king of glory? Yahweh, strong and mighty, Yahweh, mighty in war.
9 Lift up your heads, O gates! And be lifted up, O perpetual doors! And the King of Glory comes 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?” YHWH 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)
