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

Psalms 24
24
A psalm of David.
1The earth is the Lord's, and everything that is in it belongs to him. The world is his, and everyone who lives there.
2For he is the one who laid its foundations on the seas, setting it in place on the waters.
3Who is allowed to go up the Lord's mountain? Who is permitted to stand in his holy place?
4Those who have clean hands#24:4. “Clean” in the sense of innocent and not guilty of sin. and pure minds, who don't worship idols,#24:4. “Don't worship idols” or “don't take the name of the Lord in vain.” and who don't lie under oath.
5They will take with them the blessing of the Lord, vindicated by the God who saves them.
6These are the kind of people who may go to the Lord and worship before you, God of Jacob. Selah.
7Open up, you gates! Swing wide, you ancient doors! Let the King of glory come in!
8Who is this King of glory? The Lord, strong and powerful, mighty in battle.
9Open up, you gates! Swing wide, you ancient doors! Let the King of glory come in!
10Who is this King of glory? The Lord Almighty, he is the King of glory! Selah.
