Psalms 24

The King of Glory Entering Zion.

A Psalm of David.

1The 1earth is the Lord’s, and 2all it contains, The 3world, and those who live in it.2For He has 4founded it upon the seas And established it upon the rivers.3Who may 5ascend onto the 6hill of the Lord? And who may stand in His holy 7place?4One who has 8clean hands and a 9pure heart, Who has not 10lifted up his soul to deceit And has not 11sworn deceitfully.5He will receive a 12blessing from the Lord And 13 14righteousness from the God of his salvation.6 15This is the generation of those who 16seek Him, Who seek Your face--even Jacob. Selah

7 17Lift up your heads, you gates, And be lifted up, you 18ancient doors, That the King of 19glory may come in!8Who is the King of glory? The Lord 20strong and mighty, The Lord 21mighty in battle.9Lift up your heads, you gates, And lift them up, you 22ancient doors, That the King of 23glory may come in!10Who is this King of glory? The Lord of 24armies, He is the King of glory. Selah
