New Living Translation NLT
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 its people belong to him.
2 for he set its foundations on the seas and established it on the rivers.
2
For he laid the earth’s foundation on the seas and built it on the ocean depths.
3 Who may go up to the mountain of ADONAI? Who can stand in his holy place?
3
Who may climb the mountain 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
Only those whose hands and hearts are pure, who do not worship idols and never tell lies.
5 They will receive a blessing from ADONAI and justice from God, who saves them.
5
They will receive the LORD ’s blessing and have a right relationship with God their savior.
6 Such is the character of those who seek him, of Ya'akov, who seeks your face. (Selah)
6
Such people may seek you and worship in your presence, O God of Jacob. Interlude

7

8 Who is he, this glorious king? ADONAI, strong and mighty, ADONAI, mighty in battle.
8
Who is the King of glory? The LORD, strong and mighty; the LORD, invincible in battle.
9 Lift up your heads, you gates! Lift them up, everlasting doors, so that the glorious king can enter!
9
Open up, ancient gates! Open up, ancient doors, and let the King of glory enter.
10 Who is he, this glorious king? ADONAI-Tzva'ot he is the glorious king. (Selah)
10
Who is the King of glory? The LORD of Heaven’s Armies— he is the King of glory. Interlude
