1

The earth is the Lord’s and all that is in it,

the world, and those who live in it;

2

for he has founded it on the seas,

and established it on the rivers.

3

Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord?

And who shall stand in his holy place?

4

Those who have clean hands and pure hearts,

who do not lift up their souls to what is false,

and do not swear deceitfully.

5

They will receive blessing from the Lord,

and vindication from the God of their salvation.

6

Such is the company of those who seek him,

who seek the face of the God of Jacob.

7

Lift up your heads, O gates!

and be lifted up, O ancient doors!

that the King of glory may come in.

8

Who is the King of glory?

The Lord, strong and mighty,

the Lord, mighty in battle.

9

Lift up your heads, O gates!

and be lifted up, O ancient doors!

that the King of glory may come in.

10

Who is this King of glory?

The Lord of hosts,    he is the King of glory.
