< Psalmorum 24 >
1 Psalmus David, Prima sabbathi. Domini est terra, et plenitudo eius: orbis terrarum, et universi, qui habitant in eo.
“Of David a psalm.” Unto the Lord belongeth the earth with what filleth it, the world and they that dwell therein;
2 Quia ipse super maria fundavit eum: et super flumina praeparavit eum.
For upon seas hath he founded it, and upon rivers hath he established it.
3 Quis ascendet in montem Domini? aut quis stabit in loco sancto eius?
Who shall ascend into the mountain of the Lord? and who shall be able to 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 is of clean hands, and pure of heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto falsehood, and hath not sworn deceitfully:
5 Hic accipiet benedictionem a Domino: et misericordiam a Deo salutari suo.
He shall bear away blessing from the Lord, and [the reward of] righteousness from the God of his salvation.
6 Haec est generatio quaerentium eum, quaerentium faciem Dei Iacob.
This is the generation of those that adore him, that seek thy presence, [the sons of] Jacob. (Selah)
7 Attollite portas principes vestras, et elevamini portae aeternales: et introibit rex gloriae.
Raise your heads, O ye gates; and be raised wide, ye everlasting doors: and let the King of glory enter!
8 Quis est iste rex gloriae? Dominus fortis et potens: Dominus potens in praelio.
Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle.
9 Attollite portas principes vestras, et elevamini portae aeternales: et introibit rex gloriae.
Raise your heads, O ye gates; and raise [them] up, ye everlasting doors: and let the King of glory enter!
10 Quis est iste rex gloriae? Dominus virtutum ipse est rex gloriae.
Who is then this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory. (Selah)
