Psalm 24
Of David. A psalm.
1 The earth is the Lord’s,(A) and everything in it,
the world, and all who live in it;(B)
2 for he founded it on the seas
and established it on the waters.(C)
3 Who may ascend the mountain(D) of the Lord?
Who may stand in his holy place?(E)
4 The one who has clean hands(F) and a pure heart,(G)
who does not trust in an idol(H)
or swear by a false god.[a]
5 They will receive blessing(I) from the Lord
and vindication(J) from God their Savior.
6 Such is the generation of those who seek him,
who seek your face,(K) God of Jacob.[b][c]
7 Lift up your heads, you gates;(L)
be lifted up, you ancient doors,
that the King(M) of glory(N) may come in.(O)
8 Who is this King of glory?
The Lord strong and mighty,(P)
the Lord mighty in battle.(Q)
9 Lift up your heads, you gates;
lift them up, you ancient doors,
that the King of glory may come in.
10 Who is he, this King of glory?
The Lord Almighty(R)—
he is the King of glory.

24 Een psalm van David.
De aarde en al haar rijkdom
zijn van de Here!
2 Hij drong het water terug,
zodat droog land tevoorschijn kwam.
3 Wie kan de berg van de Here beklimmen
en binnengaan in de plaats waar Hij woont?
Wie kan voor de Here staan?
4 Alleen zij die schone handen en zuivere harten hebben,
die zich niet inlaten met oneerlijkheid en leugens.
5 Zij zullen als een zegen van God
zijn goedheid in hun leven ervaren.
Die reikt Hij, hun verlosser, hun Zelf toe.
6 Zij mogen voor de Here komen staan
en Hem, de God van Jakob, hulde brengen.
7 Ga toch open, eeuwenoude poorten,
en laat de geëerde Koning binnen!
8 Wie die geëerde Koning is?
De Here, sterk en machtig,
onoverwinnelijk in de strijd!
9 Ja, zet de poorten wijd open
en laat de geëerde Koning binnengaan.
10 Wie die geëerde Koning is?
Hij is de Here van alle hemelse legers.
Hij is de Koning, die alle eer toekomt.

The King of Glory
A psalm of David.[a]
24 The earth is Yahweh’s, with its fullness,
the world and those who live in it,
2 because he has founded it on the seas,
and has established it on the rivers.
3 Who may ascend the mountain of Yahweh?
And who may stand in his holy place?
4 He who is innocent of hands and pure of heart,
who does not lift up his soul to falseness,
and does not swear deceitfully.
5 He will receive blessing from Yahweh,
and justice[b] from the God of his salvation.
6 Such is the sort of those who seek[c] him,
those who seek your face, even Jacob. Selah
7 Lift up your heads, O gates,
and rise up, O ancient doorways,
that the king of glory[d] may enter.
8 Who is the king of glory?[e]
Yahweh, strong and mighty;
Yahweh, mighty in war!
9 Lift up your heads, O gates,
and lift up, O ancient doorways,
that the king of glory[f] may enter.
10 Who is the king of glory?[g]
Yahweh of hosts,
He is the king of glory![h] Selah
