Psalm 24 Legacy Standard Bible

The King of Glory

Of David. A Psalm.

1The earth is Yahweh’s, as well as its fullness,

The world, and those who dwell in it.

2For He has founded it upon the seas

And established it upon the rivers.

3Who may ascend into the mountain of Yahweh?

And who may rise in His holy place?

4He who has innocent hands and a pure heart,

Who has not lifted up his soul [†]to worthlessness

And has not sworn deceitfully.

5He shall lift up a blessing from Yahweh

And [†]righteousness from the God of his salvation.

6[†]This is the generation of those who seek Him,

Who seek Your face—pay heed O 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?

Yahweh strong and mighty,

Yahweh mighty in battle.

9Lift up your heads, O gates,

And lift yourselves up, O [†]ancient doors,

That the King of glory may come in!

10Who is He, this King of glory?

Yahweh of hosts,

He is the King of glory. Selah.
