Psalms 24

1 The earth and everything in it belongs to Yahweh; all the people in the world belong to him, too,

לְדָוִד מִזְמוֹר לַֽיהֹוָה הָאָרֶץ וּמְלוֹאָהּ תֵּבֵל וְיֹשְׁבֵי בָֽהּ׃

2 because he caused the ground to be above the water, above the water that was deep below the surface of the earth.

כִּי־הוּא עַל־יַמִּים יְסָדָהּ וְעַל־נְהָרוֹת יְכוֹנְנֶֽהָ׃

3 Who will be allowed to go up on Zion Hill [in Jerusalem], in order to stand [and worship] in Yahweh’s holy temple?

מִֽי־יַעֲלֶה בְהַר־יְהֹוָה וּמִי־יָקוּם בִּמְקוֹם קׇדְשֽׁוֹ׃

4 [Only] those whose actions [MTY] and thoughts are pure, who have not worshiped idols, and who do not tell lies when they have solemnly promised [to tell the truth].

נְקִי כַפַּיִם וּֽבַר־לֵבָב אֲשֶׁר ׀ לֹא־נָשָׂא לַשָּׁוְא נַפְשִׁי וְלֹא נִשְׁבַּע לְמִרְמָֽה׃

5 (They will be blessed by Yahweh/Yahweh will bless them). When God [judges them], he, who has saved them, will say that they (have done nothing wrong/are without fault).

יִשָּׂא בְרָכָה מֵאֵת יְהֹוָה וּצְדָקָה מֵאֱלֹהֵי יִשְׁעֽוֹ׃

6 They are the ones who approach God, they are the ones who may worship God, the one [we] Israelis worship.

זֶה דּוֹר דֹּרְשָׁו מְבַקְשֵׁי פָנֶיךָ יַעֲקֹב סֶֽלָה׃

7 Open up [APO] the [temple] gates in order that our glorious king may enter!

שְׂאוּ שְׁעָרִים ׀ רָֽאשֵׁיכֶם וְֽהִנָּשְׂאוּ פִּתְחֵי עוֹלָם וְיָבוֹא מֶלֶךְ הַכָּבֽוֹד׃

8 [Do you know] who the glorious king is? He is Yahweh, the one who is very strong [DOU]; He is Yahweh, who conquers [all his enemies] in battles!

מִי זֶה מֶלֶךְ הַכָּבוֹד יְהֹוָה עִזּוּז וְגִבּוֹר יְהֹוָה גִּבּוֹר מִלְחָמָֽה׃

9 Open up the [temple] gates in order that our glorious king may enter!

שְׂאוּ שְׁעָרִים ׀ רָֽאשֵׁיכֶם וּשְׂאוּ פִּתְחֵי עוֹלָם וְיָבֹא מֶלֶךְ הַכָּבֽוֹד׃

10 [Do you know] who the glorious king is? He is Yahweh almighty; he is our glorious king!

מִי הוּא זֶה מֶלֶךְ הַכָּבוֹד יְהֹוָה צְבָאוֹת הוּא מֶלֶךְ הַכָּבוֹד סֶֽלָה׃
