Psalms 24

1 The song of Dauid. The erthe and the fulnesse therof is `the Lordis; the world, and alle that dwellen therynne `is the Lordis.

A Psalme of David. The earth is the Lordes, and all that therein is: the worlde and they that dwell therein.

2 For he foundide it on the sees; and made it redi on floodis.

For he hath founded it vpon the seas: and established it vpon the floods.

3 Who schal stie in to the hil of the Lord; ethir who schal stonde in the hooli place of hym?

Who shall ascende into the mountaine of the Lord? and who shall stand in his holy place?

4 The innocent in hondis, and in cleene herte; whiche took not his soule in veyn, nether swoor in gile to his neiybore.

Euen he that hath innocent handes, and a pure heart: which hath not lift vp his minde vnto vanitie, nor sworne deceitfully.

5 `This man schal take blessyng of the Lord; and mercy of God his helthe.

He shall receiue a blessing from the Lord, and righteousnesse from the God of his saluation.

6 This is the generacioun of men sekynge hym; of men sekynge the face of God of Jacob.

This is the generation of them that seeke him, of them that seeke thy face, this is Iaakob. (Selah)

7 Ye princes, take vp youre yatis, and ye euerelastynge yatis, be reisid; and the kyng of glorie schal entre.

Lift vp your heads ye gates, and be ye lift vp ye euerlasting doores, and the King of glory shall come in.

8 Who is this kyng of glorie? the Lord strong and myyti, the Lord myyti in batel.

Who is this King of glorie? the Lord, strong and mightie, euen the Lord mightie in battell.

9 Ye princes, take vp youre yatis, and ye euerlastynge yatis, be reisid; and the kyng of glorie schal entre.

Lift vp your heads, ye gates, and lift vp your selues, ye euerlasting doores, and the King of glorie shall come in.

10 Who is this kyng of glorie? the Lord of vertues, he is the kyng of glorie.

Who is this King of glory? the Lord of hostes, he is the King of glorie. (Selah)
