Psalm 24

Of David. A psalm.

¹ The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it,
    the world, and all who live in it; 
² for he founded it on the seas
    and established it on the waters.

³ Who may ascend the mountain of the Lord?
    Who may stand in his holy place? 
⁴ The one who has clean hands and a pure heart, 
    who does not trust in an idol 
    or swear by a false god.

⁵ They will receive blessing from the Lord
    and vindication from God their Savior.
⁶ Such is the generation of those who seek him,
    who seek your face, God of Jacob.

⁷ Lift up your heads, you gates; 
    be lifted up, you ancient doors,
    that the King of glory may come in. 
⁸ Who is this King of glory?
    The Lord strong and mighty, 
    the Lord mighty in battle. 
⁹ Lift up your heads, you gates;
    lift them up, you ancient doors,
    that the King of glory may come in.
¹⁰ Who is he, this King of glory?
    The Lord Almighty —
    he is the King of glory.
