Psalm 24

English Standard Version

The King of Glory

A Psalm of David.

24 ^(A)The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof,^[a]
the world and those who dwell therein,
²for he has ^(B)founded it upon ^(C)the seas
and established it upon the rivers.

³^(D)Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord?
    And who shall stand in his ^(E)holy place?
⁴^(F)He who has ^(G)clean hands and ^(H)a pure heart,
    who does not ^(I)lift up his soul to ^(J)what is false
    and does not swear deceitfully.
⁵He will receive ^(K)blessing from the Lord
    and ^(L)righteousness from ^(M)the God of his salvation.
⁶Such is ^(N)the generation of those who seek him,
    who ^(O)seek the face of the God of Jacob.^[b] Selah

⁷^(P)Lift up your heads, O gates!
    And be lifted up, O ancient doors,
    that ^(Q)the King of glory may come in.
⁸Who is this King of glory?
    The Lord, strong and mighty,
    the Lord, ^(R)mighty in battle!
⁹Lift up your heads, O gates!
    And lift them up, O ancient doors,
    that the King of glory may come in.
¹⁰Who is this King of glory?
    ^(S)The Lord of hosts,
    he is the King of glory! Selah

English Standard Version

The Coming King of Zion

⁹^(A)Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion!
    Shout aloud, O daughter of Jerusalem!
^(B)Behold, ^(C)your king is coming to you;
    righteous and having salvation is he,
^(D)humble and mounted on a donkey,
    on a colt, the foal of a donkey.
¹⁰^(E)I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim
    and ^(F)the war horse from Jerusalem;
and the battle bow shall be cut off,
    and ^(G)he shall speak peace to the nations;
^(H)his rule shall be from sea to sea,
    and from ^(I)the River^[a] to the ends of the earth.
¹¹As for you also, because of ^(J)the blood of my covenant with you,
    ^(K)I will set your prisoners free from ^(L)the waterless pit.
¹²Return to your stronghold, O ^(M)prisoners of hope;
    today I declare that ^(N)I will restore to you double.
