Psalm 24 (The Earth is The Lord's)


 Verse 1

The earth is the Lord's and all it contains;

The world, and all those who dwell on its plains.

Upon the dark seas, its foundations are laid;

And deep in the rivers, its moorings are stayed.


Verse 2

And who shall ascend the hill of the Lord,

Or who, then, shall stand at rest in His ward:

The one with clean hands and the purest of heart,

Who speaks not in vain, nor a falsehood imparts.


Verse 3

This one shall from God His blessing receive;

And righteousness be His gracious reprieve.

To all generations who seek for His face,

Almighty Jehovah shall pour out His grace.


Verse 4

O rise, ancient doors! Be lifted, ye gates!

And welcome your King; prepare His estate!

And who is this King, in His glorious might?

The Lord firm in battle and strong in the fight.


Verse 5

O lift up your heads, ye portals of old!

And welcome your King; His glory behold!

And who can it be, this our glorious King?

The Lord God of hosts, whose great glory we sing!
