Psalms 24 - 26

The King of Glory

24
Of David. A Psalm.
The aearth is Yahweh’s, as well as its fullness,The bworld, and those who dwell in it.2For He has afounded it upon the seasAnd established it upon the rivers.3Who may aascend into the bmountain of Yahweh?And who may rise in His holy cplace?4He who has ainnocent hands and a bpure heart,Who has not clifted up his soul 1to worthlessnessAnd has not dsworn deceitfully.5He shall lift up a ablessing from YahwehAnd 1,brighteousness from the God of his salvation.61This is the generation of those who aseek Him,Who seek Your face—pay heed O Jacob. 2 Selah.7aLift up your heads, O gates,And be lifted up, O 1ancient doors,That the King of bglory may come in!8Who is this King of glory?Yahweh astrong and mighty,Yahweh bmighty in battle.9Lift up your heads, O gates,And lift yourselves up, O 1ancient doors,That the King of aglory may come in!10Who is He, this King of glory?Yahweh of ahosts,He is the King of glory. Selah.
