PSALMS 诗篇024

PSALM¹ 24
1The earth is the Lord 's, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it;
2for he founded it upon the seas and established it upon the waters.
3Who may ascend² the hill of the Lord ? Who may stand in his holy place?
4He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to an idol³ or swear by what is false.
5He will receive blessing⁴ from the Lord and vindication⁵ from God his Savior.
6Such is the generation of those who seek him, who seek your face, O God of Jacob. Selah
7Lift up your heads, O you gates; be lifted up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in.
8Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty⁶, the Lord mighty in battle.
9Lift up your heads, O you gates; lift them up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in.
10Who is he, this King of glory? The Lord Almighty- he is the King of glory. Selah
