Psalm 24:1-7
Contemporary English Version
(A psalm by David.)
Who Can Enter the Lord’s Temple?
24 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.
