Psalms 24

NLT

MSG

1 The earth is the LORD ’s, and everything in it. The world and all its people belong to him.
1 God claims Earth and everything in it, God claims World and all who live on it.
2 For he laid the earth’s foundation on the seas and built it on the ocean depths.
2 He built it on Ocean foundations, laid it out on River girders.
3 Who may climb the mountain of the LORD ? Who may stand in his holy place?
3 Who can climb Mount God? Who can scale the holy north-face?
4 Only those whose hands and hearts are pure, who do not worship idols and never tell lies.
4 Only the clean-handed, only the pure-hearted; Men who won't cheat, women who won't seduce.
5 They will receive the LORD ’s blessing and have a right relationship with God their savior.
5 God is at their side; with God's help they make it.
6 Such people may seek you and worship in your presence, O God of Jacob. Interlude
6 This, Jacob, is what happens to God-seekers, God-questers.
7 Open up, ancient gates! Open up, ancient doors, and let the King of glory enter.
7 Wake up, you sleepyhead city! Wake up, you sleepyhead people! King-Glory is ready to enter.
8 Who is the King of glory? The LORD, strong and mighty; the LORD, invincible in battle.
8 Who is this King-Glory? God, armed and battle-ready.
9 Open up, ancient gates! Open up, ancient doors, and let the King of glory enter.
9 Wake up, you sleepyhead city! Wake up, you sleepyhead people! King-Glory is ready to enter.
10 Who is the King of glory? The LORD of Heaven’s Armies— he is the King of glory. Interlude
10 Who is this King-Glory? God of the angel armies: he is King-Glory.
