Psalm 24

The Earth Is the LORD’s

A Psalm of David.

¹ The earth is the LORD’s, and the fullness thereof,^a the world and all who dwell therein. ² For He has founded it upon the seas and established it upon the waters.

³ Who may ascend the hill of the LORD? Who may stand in His holy place? ⁴ He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to an idol^b or swear deceitfully. ⁵ He will receive blessing from the LORD and vindication from the God of his salvation. ⁶ Such is the generation of those who seek Him, who seek Your face, O God of Jacob.^c

⁷ Lift up your heads, O gates! Be lifted up, O ancient doors, that the King of Glory may enter! ⁸ Who is this King of Glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle. ⁹ Lift up your heads, O gates! Be lifted up, O ancient doors, that the King of Glory may enter! ¹⁰ Who is He, this King of Glory? The LORD of Hosts— He is the King of Glory.
