The Earth Is the LORD’s
1 A Psalm of David.
The earth is the LORD’s, and the fullness thereof,24:1 Cited in 1 Corinthians 10:26
the world and all who dwell therein.
2 For He has founded it upon the seas
and established it upon the waters.
3 Who may ascend the hill of the LORD?
Who may stand in His holy place?
4 He who has clean hands and a pure heart,
who does not lift up his soul to an idol24:4 Or to falsehood or to vanity
or swear deceitfully.
5 He will receive blessing from the LORD
and vindication from the God of his salvation.
6 Such is the generation of those who seek Him,
who seek Your face, O God of Jacob.24:6 LXX, Syriac, and two Hebrew manuscripts; MT who seek your face, O Jacob

7 Lift up your heads, O gates!
Be lifted up, O ancient doors,
that the King of Glory may enter!
8 Who is this King of Glory?
The LORD strong and mighty,
the LORD mighty in battle.
9 Lift up your heads, O gates!
Be lifted up, O ancient doors,
that the King of Glory may enter!
10 Who is He, this King of Glory?
The LORD of Hosts —
He is the King of Glory.
