Psalms 24

1 David’s. A Melody. To Yahweh, belongeth, The earth and the fulness thereof, The world, and they who dwell therein;

“Of David a psalm.” Unto the Lord belongeth the earth with what filleth it, the world and they that dwell therein;

2 For, he, upon the seas, hath founded it, and upon the currents, doth make it firm.

For upon seas hath he founded it, and upon rivers hath he established it.

3 Who shall ascend the mountain of Yahweh? And who shall stand in his holy place?

Who shall ascend into the mountain of the Lord? and who shall be able to stand in his holy place?

4 The clean of hands, and pure of heart, —who hath not uplifted, to falsehood, his soul, nor sworn deceitfully,

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 Shall bear away a blessing from Yahweh, and righteousness, from his delivering God.

He shall bear away blessing from the Lord, and [the reward of] righteousness from the God of his salvation.

6 This, is the generation of them who inquire of him, who seek thy face, O God of Jacob. (Selah)

This is the generation of those that adore him, that seek thy presence, [the sons of] Jacob. (Selah)

7 Lift up, O ye gates, your heads, and lift yourselves up, ye age-abiding doors, That the king of glory may come in.

Raise your heads, O ye gates; and be raised wide, ye everlasting doors: and let the King of glory enter!

8 Who is the king of glory? Yahweh, strong and mighty, Yahweh, mighty in war.

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

9 Lift up, O ye gates, your heads, yea lift [them] up, ye age-abiding doors, That the king of glory may come in.

Raise your heads, O ye gates; and raise [them] up, ye everlasting doors: and let the King of glory enter!

10 Who then is the king of glory? Yahweh of hosts, He, is the king of glory. (Selah)

Who is then this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory. (Selah)
