Who has not lifted up his soul to what is false,
Nor has sworn [oaths] deceitfully. [Matt 5:8]

And righteousness from the God of his salvation.

Who seek Your face, even [as did] Jacob. [Ps 42:1] Selah.

And be lifted up, 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.

And lift them up, ancient doors,
That the King of glory may come in.
