Psalms 24

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 By David. A psalm: The earth is ADONAI's, with all that is in it, the world and those who live there;

2 for he set its foundations on the seas and established it on the rivers.

3 Who may go up to the mountain of ADONAI? Who can 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.

5 They will receive a blessing from ADONAI and justice from God, who saves them.

6 Such is the character of those who seek him, of Ya'akov, who seeks your face. (Selah)

7 Lift up your heads, you gates! Lift them up, everlasting doors, so that the glorious king can enter!

8 Who is he, this glorious king? ADONAI, strong and mighty, ADONAI, mighty in battle.

9 Lift up your heads, you gates! Lift them up, everlasting doors, so that the glorious king can enter!

10 Who is he, this glorious king? ADONAI-Tzva'ot he is the glorious king. (Selah)

The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 <A Psalm. Of David.> The earth is the Lord's, with all its wealth; the world and all the people living in it.

2 For by him it was based on the seas, and made strong on the deep rivers.

3 Who may go up into the hill of the Lord? and who may come into his holy place?

4 He who has clean hands and a true heart; whose desire has not gone out to foolish things, who has not taken a false oath.

5 He will have blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

6 This is the generation of those whose hearts are turned to you, even to your face, O God of Jacob. (Selah.)

7 Let your heads be lifted up, O doors; be lifted up, O you eternal doors: that the King of glory may come in.

8 Who is the King of glory? The Lord of strength and power, the Lord strong in war.

9 Let your heads be lifted up, O doors; let them be lifted up, O you eternal doors: that the King of glory may come in.

10 Who is the King of glory? The Lord of armies, he is the King of glory. (Selah.)
