荣耀的君王

大卫的诗。

24 大地和其中的万物都属于耶和华,
世上的一切都是祂的。
祂把大地奠基于海中,
建立在大水之上。
谁能登耶和华的山?
谁能站在祂的圣所中?
只有那些手洁心清,
不拜假神,不起假誓的人。
他们必蒙耶和华赐福,
被救他们的上帝称为义人。
这就是寻求耶和华的人,
他们敬拜雅各的上帝。(细拉)

众城门啊,打开吧!
古老的城门啊,敞开吧!
让荣耀的君王进来。
谁是荣耀的君王呢?是耶和华,
祂强大无比、战无不胜。
众城门啊,打开吧!
古老的城门啊,敞开吧!
让荣耀的君王进来。
10 谁是荣耀的君王呢?
万军之耶和华是荣耀的君王。(细拉)

24 long, forever). (Mizmor of Dovid) Ha’aretz is Hashem’s, and the fullness thereof; the tevel (world), and they that dwell therein.

For He hath founded it upon the yamim (seas), and established it upon the waters.

Who shall ascend the Har Hashem? Or who shall stand in His Makom Kodesh?

He that hath clean hands, and a bar levav (pure heart); who hath not lifted up his nefesh unto shahv (vanity), nor sworn l’mirmah (deceitfully).

He shall receive the brocha (blessing) from Hashem, and tzedakah from Elohei Yisho (the G-d of his Salvation).

This is the generation of them that seek Him, that seek Thy face, O Ya’akov. Selah.

Lift up your heads, O ye she’arim; and be ye lifted up, ye Pitchei Olam (everlasting doorways); and Melech HaKavod shall come in.

Who is this Melech HaKavod? Hashem strong and mighty, Hashem Gibbor Milchamah.

Lift up your heads, O ye she’arim; even lift them up, ye Pitchei Olam; and Melech HaKavod shall come in.

10 Who is this Melech HaKavod? Hashem Tzva’os, He is Melech HaKavod. Selah.

Psalm 24

A psalm of David.

24 The earth is the Lord’s and everything in it,
    the world and its inhabitants too.
Because God is the one who established it on the seas;
    God set it firmly on the waters.

Who can ascend the Lord’s mountain?
    Who can stand in his holy sanctuary?
Only the one with clean hands and a pure heart;
    the one who hasn’t made false promises,
    the one who hasn’t sworn dishonestly.
That kind of person receives blessings from the Lord
    and righteousness from the God who saves.
And that’s how things are
    with the generation that seeks him—
    that seeks the face of Jacob’s God.[a] Selah

Mighty gates: lift up your heads!
    Ancient doors: rise up high!
        So the glorious king can enter!
Who is this glorious king?
    The Lord—strong and powerful!
    The Lord—powerful in battle!
Mighty gates: lift up your heads!
    Ancient doors: rise up high!
        So the glorious king can enter!
10 Who is this glorious king?
    The Lord of heavenly forces—
        he is the glorious king! Selah
