Psalm 24
A psalm of David.
1The earth belongs to the Lord. And so does everything in it.
The world belongs to him. And so do all those who live in it.
2He set it firmly on the oceans.
He made it secure on the waters.
3Who can go up to the temple on the mountain of the Lord?
Who can stand in his holy place?
4Anyone who has clean hands and a pure heart.
Anyone who does not trust in the statue of a god.
Anyone who doesn’t use the name of that god when he makes a promise.
5People like that will receive the Lord’s blessing.
When God their Savior hands down his sentence, it will be in their favor.
6The people who look to God are like that.
God of Jacob, they look to you.
7Open wide, you gates.
Open up, you ancient doors.
Then the King of glory will come in.
8Who is the King of glory?
The Lord, who is strong and mighty.
The Lord, who is mighty in battle.
9Open wide, you gates.
Open wide, you ancient doors.
Then the King of glory will come in.
10Who is he, this King of glory?
The Lord who rules over all.
He is the King of glory.

Psalm 24
A psalm by David.
1The earth and everything it contains are the Lord’s.
The world and all who live in it are his.
2He laid its foundation on the seas
and set it firmly on the rivers.
3Who may go up the Lord’s mountain?
Who may stand in his holy place?
4 ⌞The one who⌟ has clean hands and a pure heart
and does not long for what is false
or lie when he is under oath.
5 ⌞This person⌟ will receive a blessing from the Lord
and righteousness from God, his savior.
6This is the person who seeks him,
who searches for the face of the God of Jacob.#24:6 A few Hebrew manuscripts, Greek, Syriac; Masoretic Text “your face, Jacob.” Selah
7Lift your heads, you gates.
Be lifted, you ancient doors,
so that the king of glory may come in.
8Who is this king of glory?
The Lord, strong and mighty!
The Lord, heroic in battle!
9Lift your heads, you gates.
Be lifted, you ancient doors,
so that the king of glory may come in.
10Who, then, is this king of glory?
The Lord of Armies is the king of glory! Selah
