Psalms 24

A Psalm by David.

¹The earth is the LORD’s, with its fullness;

the world, and those who dwell in it.

²For he has founded it on the seas,

and established it on the floods.

³Who may ascend to the LORD’s hill?

Who may stand in his holy place?

⁴He who has clean hands and a pure heart;

who has not lifted up his soul to falsehood,

and has not sworn deceitfully.

⁵He shall receive a blessing from the LORD,

righteousness from the God of his salvation.

⁶This is the generation of those who seek Him,

who seek your face—even Jacob. Selah.

⁷Lift up your heads, you gates!

Be lifted up, you everlasting doors,

and the King of glory will come in.

⁸Who is the King of glory?

The LORD strong and mighty,

the LORD mighty in battle.

⁹Lift up your heads, you gates;

yes, lift them up, you everlasting doors,

and the King of glory will come in.

¹⁰Who is this King of glory?

The LORD of Armies is the King of glory! Selah.
