Psalm 24
Domini est terra
1
The earth is the Lord’s, and all that therein is *
the compass of the world, and they that dwell therein.
2
For he hath founded it upon the seas *
and prepared it upon the floods.
3
Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord *
or who shall rise up in his holy place?
4
Even he that hath clean hands, and a pure heart *
and that hath not lift up his mind unto vanity, nor sworn to deceive his neighbour.
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 *
even of them that seek thy face, O Jacob.
7
Lift up your heads, O ye gates, and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors *
and the King of glory shall come in.
