Entrance into the Temple
Of David. A Psalm.
1The earth is the Lord’s and all that is in it,
the world, and those who live in it,*
2for he has founded it on the seas
and established it on the rivers.
3Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord?
And who shall stand in his holy place?*
4Those who have clean hands and pure hearts,
who do not lift up their souls to what is false
and do not swear deceitfully.*
5They will receive blessing from the Lord
and vindication from the God of their salvation.*
6Such is the company of those who seek him,
who seek the face of the God of Jacob.t Selah
7Lift up your heads, O gates!
and be lifted up, O ancient doors,
that the King of glory may come in!*
8Who is the King of glory?
The Lord, strong and mighty,
the Lord, mighty in battle.*
9Lift up your heads, O gates!
and be lifted up, O ancient doors,
that the King of glory may come in!*
10Who is this King of glory?
The Lord of hosts,
he is the King of glory. Selah
