Psalm 24

The King of Glory

A Psalm of David.

¹The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof,

the world and those who dwell therein,

²for he has founded it upon the seas

and established it upon the rivers.

³Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord?

And who shall stand in his holy place?

⁴He who has clean hands and a pure heart,

who does not lift up his soul to what is false

and does not swear deceitfully.

⁵He will receive blessing from the Lord

and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

⁶Such is the generation of those who seek him,

who seek the face of the God of Jacob.Selah

⁷Lift up your heads, O gates!

And be lifted up, O ancient doors,

that the King of glory may come in.

⁸Who is this King of glory?

The Lord, strong and mighty,

the Lord, mighty in battle!

⁹Lift up your heads, O gates!

And lift them up, O ancient doors,

that the King of glory may come in.

¹⁰Who is this King of glory?

The Lord of hosts,

he is the King of glory! Selah
