Psalms

Psalm 24

1 THE earth is the LORD'S and the fulness thereof; the world and they that dwell therein.

2 For he has set the foundation thereof in the sea, and has furnished it with rivers.

3 Who shall ascend into the mountain of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place?

4 He who has clean hands and a pure heart; who has not sworn by his soul falsely, nor taken an oath deceitfully.

5 He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from God our Saviour.

6 This is the generation of them that seek thy face, that proclaim thy countenance, O thou God of Jacob.

7 Lift up your heads, O you gates; and be lifted up, O everlasting 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, O you gates; and be lifted up, O everlasting doors, that the King of glory may come in.

10 Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, he is the King of glory forever.
