Psalm 24

The earth is the Lord’s and all that is in it, *

the world and all who dwell therein.

For it is he who founded it upon the seas *

and made it firm upon the rivers of the deep.

“Who can ascend the hill of the Lord? *

and who can stand in his holy place?”

“Those who have clean hands and a pure heart, *

who have not pledged themselves to falsehood,

nor sworn by what is a fraud.

They shall receive a blessing from the Lord *

and a just reward from the God of their salvation.”

Such is the generation of those who seek him, *

of those who seek your face, O God of Jacob.

Lift up your heads, O gates;

lift them high, O everlasting doors; *

and the King of glory shall come in.

“Who is this King of glory?” *

“The Lord, strong and mighty,

the Lord, mighty in battle.”

Lift up your heads, O gates;

lift them high, O everlasting doors; *

and the King of glory shall come in.

“Who is he, this King of glory?” *

“The Lord of hosts,

he is the King of glory.”
