Psalm 24 ~ Psalm 24

picture

1 T he earth is the Lord’s, and all that is in it, the world, and all who live in it.

The earth is Yahweh’s, with its fullness; the world, and those who dwell therein.

2 F or He has built it upon the seas. He has set it upon the rivers.

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

3 W ho may go up the mountain of the Lord? And who may stand in His holy place?

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

4 H e who has clean hands and a pure heart. He who has not lifted up his soul to what is not true, and has not made false promises.

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

5 H e will receive what is good from the Lord, and what is right and good from the God Who saves him.

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

6 S uch is the family of those who look for Him, who look for Your face, O God of Jacob.

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

7 L ift up your heads, O gates. And be lifted up, O doors that last forever. And the King of shining-greatness will come in.

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

8 W ho is the King of shining-greatness? The Lord strong and powerful. The Lord powerful in war.

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

9 L ift up your heads, O gates. Lift them up, O doors that last forever and the King of shining-greatness will come in.

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

10 W ho is the King of shining-greatness? The Lord of All. He is the King of shining-greatness.

Who is this King of glory? Yahweh of Armies is the King of glory! Selah.
