1 By David. A psalm: The earth is ADONAI's, with all that is in it, the world and those who live there;
|
1 The earth is the LORD's, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it;
|
|
2 for he set its foundations on the seas and established it on the rivers.
|
2 for he founded it upon the seas and established it upon the waters.
|
|
3 Who may go up to the mountain of ADONAI? Who can stand in his holy place?
|
3 Who may ascend the hill of the LORD? Who may stand in his holy place?
|
|
4 Those with clean hands and pure hearts, who don't make vanities the purpose of their lives or swear oaths just to deceive.
|
4 He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to an idol or swear by what is false.
|
|
5 They will receive a blessing from ADONAI and justice from God, who saves them.
|
5 He will receive blessing from the LORD and vindication from God his Savior.
|
|
6 Such is the character of those who seek him, of Ya'akov, who seeks your face. (Selah)
|
6 Such is the generation of those who seek him, who seek your face, O God of Jacob. "Selah"

7 Lift up your heads, you gates! Lift them up, everlasting doors, so that the glorious king can enter!
|
7 Lift up your heads, O you gates; be lifted up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in.
|
|
8 Who is he, this glorious king? ADONAI, strong and mighty, ADONAI, mighty in battle.
|
8 Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.
|
|
9 Lift up your heads, you gates! Lift them up, everlasting doors, so that the glorious king can enter!
|
9 Lift up your heads, O you gates; lift them up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in.
|
|
10 Who is he, this glorious king? ADONAI-Tzva'ot he is the glorious king. (Selah)
|
10 Who is he, this King of glory? The LORD Almighty-- he is the King of glory. "Selah"
