Psalm 24
Tree of Life Version
The King of Glory
Psalm 24
1 A psalm of David.
The earth is Adonai’s and all that fills it—[a]
the world, and those dwelling on it.
2 For He founded it upon the seas,
and established it upon the rivers.
3 Who may go up on the mountain of Adonai?
Who may stand in His holy place?
4 One with clean hands and a pure heart,
who has not lifted his soul in vain,
nor sworn deceitfully.
5 He will receive a blessing from Adonai,
righteousness from God his salvation.
6 Such is the generation seeking Him,
seeking Your face, even Jacob! Selah
7 Lift up your heads, O gates,
and be lifted up, you everlasting doors:
that the King of glory may come in.
8 “Who is this King of glory?”
Adonai strong and mighty,
Adonai mighty in battle!
9 Lift up your heads, O gates,
and lift them up, you everlasting doors:
that the King of glory may come in.
10 “Who is this King of glory?”
Adonai-Tzva’ot—He is the King of glory! Selah
