24

A Psalm of David.

1 The * earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

2* For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.

3* Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? ‡ or who shall stand in his holy place?

4*† He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.

5 He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

6 This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, ∥ O Jacob. Selah.

7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall 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 ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

10 Who is this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory. Selah.
