Psalms 24

1 Of David. A psalm. The earth is the Lord’s and all that it holds, the world and those who live in it.

2 For he founded it on the seas, and on the floods he sustains it.

3 Who may ascend the hill of the Lord? Who may stand in his holy place?

4 The clean of hands, the pure of heart, who sets not their heart upon sinful things, nor swears with intent to deceive:

5 they win from the Lord a blessing: God is their champion and savior.

6 Such must be those who resort to him, and seek the face of the God of Jacob. (Selah)

7 Lift high your heads, you gates – Higher, you ancient doors; welcome the glorious king.

8 “Who is the glorious king?” “The Lord strong and heroic, the Lord heroic in battle.”

9 Lift high your heads, you gates – Higher, you ancient doors; welcome the glorious king.

10 “Who is the glorious king?” “The Lord, the God of hosts, he is the glorious king.” (Selah)
