Psalm 24
King James Version
24 The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
2 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.
3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in his holy place?
4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.
5 He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
6 This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah.
7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.
8 Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle.
9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.
10 Who is this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory. Selah.

Entrada del rey de gloria
Salmo de David.
24 Del Señor es la tierra y todo lo que hay en ella(A),
El mundo(B) y los que en él habitan.
2 Porque Él la fundó sobre los mares,
Y la asentó sobre los ríos(C).
3 ¿Quién subirá(D) al monte del Señor(E)?
¿Y quién podrá estar en Su lugar santo(F)?
4 El de manos limpias(G) y corazón puro(H),
El que no ha alzado su alma a la falsedad(I)
Ni jurado con engaño(J).
5 Ese recibirá bendición del Señor(K),
Y justicia(L) del Dios de su salvación.
6 Tal es la generación de los que lo buscan,
De los que buscan Tu rostro, como Jacob(M). (Selah)
7 Alcen, oh puertas(N), sus cabezas,
álcense, puertas eternas,
Para que entre el Rey de la gloria(O).
8 ¿Quién es este Rey de la gloria?
El Señor, fuerte y poderoso(P);
El Señor, poderoso en batalla(Q).
9 Álcen, oh puertas, sus cabezas,
Álcenlas, puertas eternas,
Para que entre el Rey de la gloria(R).
10 ¿Quién es este Rey de la gloria?
El Señor de los ejércitos(S),
Él es el Rey de la gloria. (Selah)
