Psalms 24

   |   

(A psalm by David.)

Who Can Enter the Lord's Temple?

1 The earth and everything on it
    belong to the Lord.
    The world and its people
    belong to him.
2 The Lord placed it all
    on the oceans and rivers.

3 Who may climb the Lord's hill[a]
    or stand in his holy temple?
4 Only those who do right
    for the right reasons,
    and don't worship idols
    or tell lies under oath.
5 The Lord God, who saves them,
    will bless and reward them,
6     because they worship and serve
    the God of Jacob.[b]
7 Open the ancient gates,
    so that the glorious king
    may come in.

8 Who is this glorious king?
    He is our Lord, a strong
    and mighty warrior.

9 Open the ancient gates,
    so that the glorious king
    may come in.

10 Who is this glorious king?
    He is our Lord,
    the All-Powerful!
