Psalms 24

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

A Psalm of David. The earth is the LORD’s, and the fullness thereof, the world and all who dwell therein.

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

For He has founded it upon the seas and established it upon the waters.

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

Who may ascend the hill of the LORD? Who may stand in His holy place?

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

He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to an idol or swear deceitfully.

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

He will receive blessing from the LORD and vindication from the God of his salvation.

6 This, is the generation of them who inquire of him, who seek thy face, O God of Jacob. (Selah)

Such is the generation of those who seek Him, who seek Your face, O God of Jacob.

7 Lift up, O ye gates, your heads, and lift yourselves up, ye age-abiding doors, That the king of glory may come in.

Lift up your heads, O gates! Be lifted up, O ancient doors, that the King of Glory may enter!

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

Who is this King of Glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.

9 Lift up, O ye gates, your heads, yea lift [them] up, ye age-abiding doors, That the king of glory may come in.

Lift up your heads, O gates! Be lifted up, O ancient doors, that the King of Glory may enter!

10 Who then is the king of glory? Yahweh of hosts, He, is the king of glory. (Selah)

Who is He, this King of Glory? The LORD of Hosts— He is the King of Glory.
