24 The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.

Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in his holy place?

He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.

He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah.

Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle.

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.

Ang Dios ang Dakilang Hari

24 Ang buong mundo at ang lahat ng naririto ay pag-aari ng Panginoon.
Itinayo niya ang pundasyon ng mundo sa kailaliman ng dagat.
Sino ang karapat-dapat umakyat sa bundok ng Panginoon?
    At sino ang maaaring tumungtong sa kanyang banal na templo?
Makatutungtong ang may matuwid na pamumuhay at malinis na puso,
    ang hindi sumasamba sa mga dios-diosan,
    at ang hindi sumusumpa ng kasinungalingan.
Pagpapalain siya at ipapawalang-sala ng Panginoon, ang Dios na kanyang Tagapagligtas.
Iyan ang mga taong makakalapit at sasamba sa Dios ni Jacob.

Buksan ninyo nang maluwang ang mga lumang pintuan ng templo
    upang makapasok ang Haring makapangyarihan!
Sino ang Haring makapangyarihan?
    Siya ang Panginoong malakas at matatag sa pakikipaglaban.
Buksan ninyo nang maluwang ang mga lumang pintuan ng templo
    upang makapasok ang Haring makapangyarihan!
10 Sino ang Haring makapangyarihan?
    Siya ang Panginoon na pinuno ng hukbo ng kalangitan.
    Tunay nga siyang Haring makapangyarihan!

Psalm 24

Of David. A psalm.

The earth is the Lord’s,(A) and everything in it,
    the world, and all who live in it;(B)
for he founded it on the seas
    and established it on the waters.(C)

Who may ascend the mountain(D) of the Lord?
    Who may stand in his holy place?(E)
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]

They will receive blessing(I) from the Lord
    and vindication(J) from God their Savior.
Such is the generation of those who seek him,
    who seek your face,(K) God of Jacob.[b][c]

Lift up your heads, you gates;(L)
    be lifted up, you ancient doors,
    that the King(M) of glory(N) may come in.(O)
Who is this King of glory?
    The Lord strong and mighty,(P)
    the Lord mighty in battle.(Q)
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.
