Psalms

¹ A Psalm of David. The earth is the Lord's, and the fullness of it, The world, and those who dwell in it.

² For He has founded it upon the seas And established it upon the streams and the rivers.

³ Who may ascend onto the mountain of the LORD? And 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 what is false, Nor has sworn [oaths] deceitfully.

⁵ He shall receive a blessing from the LORD, And righteousness from the God of his salvation.

⁶ This is the generation (description) of those who diligently seek Him and require Him as their greatest need, Who seek Your face, even [as did] Jacob. Selah.

⁷ Lift up your heads, O gates, And be lifted up, ancient doors, That the King of glory may come in.

⁸ Who is the King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, The LORD mighty in battle.

⁹ Lift up your heads, O gates, And lift them up, ancient doors, That the King of glory may come in.

¹⁰ Who is [He then] this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, He is the King of glory [who rules over all creation with His heavenly armies]. Selah.
