Psalmorum 24

1 Prima sabbati, Psalmus David. Domini est terra, et plenitudo eius: orbis terrarum, et universi, qui habitant in eo.

“A psalm of David.” The earth is the LORD'S, and all that is therein; The world, and they who inhabit it.

2 Quia ipse super maria fundavit eum: et super flumina præparavit eum.

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

3 Quis ascendet in montem Domini? aut quis stabit in loco sancto eius?

Who shall ascend the hill of the LORD? And who shall stand in his holy place?

4 Innocens manibus et mundo corde, qui non accepit in vano animam suam, nec iuravit in dolo proximo suo.

He that hath clean hands and a pure heart; Who hath not inclined his soul to falsehood, Nor sworn deceitfully.

5 Hic accipiet benedictionem a Domino: et misericordiam a Deo salutari suo.

He shall receive a blessing from the LORD, And favor from the God of his salvation.

6 Hæc est generatio quærentium eum, quærentium faciem Dei Iacob.

This is the race of them that seek him; They that seek thy face are Jacob. (Pause)

7 Attollite portas principes vestras, et elevamini portæ æternales: et introibit Rex gloriæ.

Lift up your heads, O ye gates! Lift yourselves up, ye everlasting doors, That the king of glory may come in!

8 Quis est iste rex gloriæ? Dominus fortis et potens: Dominus potens in prælio.

“Who is this king of glory?” Jehovah, strong and mighty; Jehovah, mighty in battle.

9 Attollite portas principes vestras, et elevamini portæ æternales: et introibit Rex gloriæ.

Lift up your heads, O ye gates! Lift yourselves up, ye everlasting doors, That the king of glory may enter in!

10 Quis est iste rex gloriæ? Dominus virtutum ipse est Rex gloriæ.

“Who is this king of glory?” Jehovah, God of hosts, he is the king of glory. (Pause)
