Psalm 24

The King of Glory

24A psalm of David.^a

¹The earth is Yahweh’s, with its fullness,

the world and those who live in it,

²because he has founded it on the seas,

and has established it on the rivers.

³Who may ascend the mountain of Yahweh?

And who may stand in his holy place?

⁴He who is innocent of hands and pure of heart,

who does not lift up his soul to falseness,

and does not swear deceitfully.

⁵He will receive blessing from Yahweh,

and justice^b from the God of his salvation.

⁶Such is the sort of those who seek^c him,

those who seek your face, even Jacob. Selah

⁷Lift up your heads, O gates,

and rise up, O ancient doorways,

that the king of glory^d may enter.

⁸Who is the king of glory?^e

Yahweh, strong and mighty;

Yahweh, mighty in war!

⁹Lift up your heads, O gates,

and lift up, O ancient doorways,

that the king of glory^f may enter.

¹⁰Who is the king of glory?^g

Yahweh of hosts,

He is the king of glory!^h Selah
