Psalms 24

1 A Psalm of David. To Jehovah [is] the earth and its fulness, The world and the inhabitants in it.

A Psalm by David. The earth is the LORD’s, with its fullness; the world, and those who dwell in it.

2 For He on the seas hath founded it, And on the floods He doth establish it.

For he has founded it on the seas, and established it on the floods.

3 Who goeth up into the hill of Jehovah? And who riseth up in His holy place?

Who may ascend to the LORD’s hill? Who may stand in his holy place?

4 The clean of hands, and pure of heart, Who hath not lifted up to vanity his soul, Nor hath sworn to deceit.

He who has clean hands and a pure heart; who has not lifted up his soul to falsehood, and has not sworn deceitfully.

5 He beareth away a blessing from Jehovah, Righteousness from the God of his salvation.

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

6 This [is] a generation of those seeking Him. Seeking Thy face, O Jacob! (Selah)

This is the generation of those who seek Him, who seek your face—even Jacob. (Selah)

7 Lift up, O gates, your heads, And be lifted up, O doors age-during, And come in doth the king of glory!

Lift up your heads, you gates! Be lifted up, you everlasting doors, and the King of glory will come in.

8 Who [is] this — 'the king of glory?' Jehovah — strong and mighty, Jehovah, the mighty in battle.

Who is the King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.

9 Lift up, O gates, your heads, And be lifted up, O doors age-during, And come in doth the king of glory!

Lift up your heads, you gates; yes, lift them up, you everlasting doors, and the King of glory will come in.

10 Who [is] He — this 'king of glory?' Jehovah of hosts — He [is] the king of glory! (Selah)

Who is this King of glory? The LORD of Hosts is the King of glory! (Selah)
