Psalms 24

A Welcome for God into the Temple

A psalm of David.

1 The earth belongs to the Lord, and everything in it—
    the world and all its people.
2 He built it on the waters
    and set it on the rivers.

3 Who may go up on the mountain of the Lord?
    Who may stand in his holy Temple?
4 Only those with clean hands and pure hearts,
    who have not worshiped idols,
    who have not made promises in the name of a false god.
5 They will receive a blessing from the Lord;
    the God who saves them will declare them right.
6 They try to follow God;
    they look to the God of Jacob for help. Selah

7 Open up, you gates.
    Open wide, you aged doors
    and the glorious King will come in.
8 Who is this glorious King?
    The Lord, strong and mighty.
    The Lord, the powerful warrior.
9 Open up, you gates.
    Open wide, you aged doors
    and the glorious King will come in.
10 Who is this glorious King?
    The Lord All-Powerful—
    he is the glorious King. Selah
