Psalm 24
Vers 1
The LORD is King of earth’s domain,
the world and all that dwell therein.
Rejoice, O Zion’s sons and daughters,
for it stands firm by his decrees;
he founded it upon the seas,
established it upon the waters.
Vers 2
Who shall ascend the hill of God,
stand in his holy place, and laud
the LORD who lives and reigns forever?
He who withstands the wicked’s lure,
whose hands are clean, whose heart is pure,
who keeps his oaths and does not waver.
Vers 3
Rich blessings shall be his reward,
and vindication from the LORD,
who is the rock of his salvation.
Such are all those who seek his face.
O God of Jacob, God of grace,
from you is all their expectation.
Vers 4
Lift up your heads, you arch and gate;
O ancient doors, rise up and wait.
Let him come in, the King all-glorious.
Who is this King so great in fame?
The LORD Almighty is his name,
he who in battle is victorious.
Vers 5
Lift up your heads, you arch and gate;
O ancient doors, rise up and wait.
Let him come in, the King of glory.
Who is this King, in glory great?
The LORD of hosts! Him we await.
The LORD, he is the King of glory.
