Psalms 24:1-10
-
The glorious King enters the gates
-
‘To Jehovah belongs the earth’ (1)
-
Of David. A melody.
24 To Jehovah belong the earth and everything in it,+The productive land and those dwelling on it.
2 For he has solidly fixed it on the seas+And firmly established it on the rivers.
3 Who may ascend to the mountain of Jehovah,+And who may stand up in his holy place?
4 Anyone with innocent hands and a pure heart,+Who has not sworn a false oath by My life,*Nor taken an oath deceitfully.+
5 He will receive blessings from Jehovah+And righteousness* from his God of salvation.+
6 This is the generation of those seeking him,Of those seeking your face, O God of Jacob. (Selah)
7 Lift up your heads, you gates;+Open up,* you ancient doorways,That the glorious King may enter!+
8 Who is this glorious King?
Jehovah, strong and mighty,+Jehovah, mighty in battle.+
9 Lift up your heads, you gates;+Open up, you ancient doorways,That the glorious King may enter!
10 Who is he, this glorious King?
Jehovah of armies—he is the glorious King.+ (Selah)
