Psalms 24

1 A Psalm of David. The earth is the LORD’S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

David’s. A Melody. To Yahweh, belongeth, The earth and the fulness thereof, The world, and they who dwell therein;

2 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.

For, he, upon the seas, hath founded it, and upon the currents, doth make it firm.

3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? and who shall stand in his holy place?

Who shall ascend the mountain of Yahweh? And who shall stand in his holy place?

4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, and hath not sworn deceitfully.

The clean of hands, and pure of heart, —who hath not uplifted, to falsehood, his soul, nor sworn deceitfully,

5 He shall receive a blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

Shall bear away a blessing from Yahweh, and righteousness, from his delivering God.

6 This is the generation of them that seek after him, that seek thy face, [O God of] 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 ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors: and the King of glory shall come 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 the King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.

Who is the king of glory? Yahweh, strong and mighty, Yahweh, mighty in war.

9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; yea, lift them up, ye everlasting doors: and the King of glory shall come 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 this King of glory? The LORD 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)
