Psalms 24
24
(A psalm by David.)
Who can enter the LORD's temple?
1The earth and everything on it#1 Co 10.26.
belong to the LORD.
The world and its people
belong to him.
2The LORD placed it all
on the oceans and rivers.
3Who may climb the LORD's hill#24.3 the LORD's hill: The hill in Jerusalem where the temple was built.
or stand in his holy temple?
4Only those who do right#Mt 5.8.
for the right reasons,
and don't worship idols
or tell lies under oath.
5The LORD God, who saves them,
will bless and reward them,
6because they worship and serve
the God of Jacob.#24.6 worship…Jacob: Two ancient translations; Hebrew “worship God and serve the descendants of Jacob”.
7Open the ancient gates,
so that the glorious king
may come in.
8Who is this glorious king?
He is our LORD, a strong
and mighty warrior.
9Open the ancient gates,
so that the glorious king
may come in.
10Who is this glorious king?
He is our LORD,
the All-Powerful!

Psalms 24
24
A Psalm by David.
1 The earth is the LORD’s, with its fullness;
the world, and those who dwell in it.
2 For he has founded it on the seas,
and established it on the floods.
3 Who may ascend to the LORD’s hill?
Who may stand in his holy place?
4 He who has clean hands and a pure heart;
who has not lifted up his soul to falsehood,
and has not sworn deceitfully.
5 He shall receive a blessing from the LORD,
righteousness from the God of his salvation.
6 This is the generation of those who seek Him,
who seek your face—even Jacob. Selah.
7 Lift up your heads, you gates!
Be lifted up, you everlasting doors,
and the King of glory will come in.
8 Who is the King of glory?
The LORD strong and mighty,
the LORD mighty in battle.
9 Lift up your heads, you gates;
yes, lift them up, you everlasting doors,
and the King of glory will come in.
10 Who is this King of glory?
The LORD of Armies is the King of glory! Selah.
