PSALM 24

The King of Glory Entering Zion.

A Psalm of David.

1 The earthis the Lord’s, and the fullness of it,

The world, and those who dwell in it.

2 For He has founded it upon the seas

And established it upon the streamsandthe rivers.

3 Who may ascend onto themountain of the Lord?

And who may stand in His holy place?

4 He who has clean hands and a pure heart,

Who has not lifted up his soul to what is false,

Nor has sworn [oaths] deceitfully.

5 He shall receive a blessing from the Lord,

And righteousness from the God of his salvation.

6 This is the generation (description) of those who diligently seek Himandrequire Him as their greatest need,

Who seek Your face, even [as did] Jacob. Selah.

7 Lift up your heads, O gates,

And be lifted up, ancient doors,

That the King of glory may come in.

8 Who is the King of glory?

The Lordstrong and mighty,

The Lordmighty in battle.

9 Lift up your heads, O gates,

And lift them up, ancient doors,

That the King of glory may come in.

10 Who is [He then] this King of glory?

The Lordof hosts,

He is the King of glory [who rules over all creation with His heavenly armies]. Selah.
