Psalm 24

Of David. A psalm.

1The earth is the Lord’s,h and everything in it,

the world, and all who live in it;i

2for he founded it on the seas

and established it on the waters.j

3Who may ascend the mountaink of the Lord?

Who may stand in his holy place?l

4The one who has clean handsm and a pure heart,n

who does not trust in an idolo

or swear by a false god.a

5They will receive blessingp from the Lord

and vindicationq from God their Savior.

6Such is the generation of those who seek him,

who seek your face,r God of Jacob.bc

7Lift up your heads, you gates;s

be lifted up, you ancient doors,

that the Kingt of gloryu may come in.v

8Who is this King of glory?

The Lord strong and mighty,w

the Lord mighty in battle.x

9Lift up your heads, you gates;

lift them up, you ancient doors,

that the King of glory may come in.

10Who is he, this King of glory?

The Lord Almightyy—

he is the King of glory.
