Psalm 24

1 The earth is the LORD's and everything in it, the world and its inhabitants too.

1 God claims Earth and everything in it, God claims World and all who live on it.

3 Who can ascend the LORD's mountain? Who can stand in his holy sanctuary?

4 Only the one with clean hands and a pure heart; the one who hasn't made false promises, the one who hasn't sworn dishonestly.

4 Only the clean-handed, only the pure-hearted; Men who won't cheat, women who won't seduce.

5 That kind of person receives blessings from the LORD and righteousness from the God who saves.

5 God is at their side; with God's help they make it.

6 And that's how things are with the generation that seeks him— that seeks the face of Jacob's God. Selah
