PSALM 24

David testifies: The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof-He that hath clean hands and a pure heart shall ascend unto the hill of the Lord-The Lord of hosts is the King of glory.

A PSALM OF DAVID.

  1 The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

  2 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.

  3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in his holy place?

  4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.

  5 He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

  6 This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah.

  7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

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

  9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

  10 Who is this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory. Selah.
