Psalm 24 Living Bible (TLB)

24 The earth belongs to God! Everything in all the world is his! ² He is the one who pushed the oceans back to let dry land appear.^[a]

³ Who may climb the mountain of the Lord and enter where he lives? Who may stand before the Lord? ⁴ Only those with pure hands and hearts, who do not practice dishonesty and lying. ⁵ They will receive God’s own goodness^[b] as their blessing from him, planted in their lives by God himself, their Savior. ⁶ These are the ones who are allowed to stand before the Lord and worship the God of Jacob.

⁷ Open up, O ancient gates, and let the King of Glory in. ⁸ Who is this King of Glory? The Lord, strong and mighty, invincible in battle. ⁹ Yes, open wide the gates and let the King of Glory in.

¹⁰ Who is this King of Glory? The Commander of all of heaven’s armies!
