Psalm 24Common English Bible (CEB) Psalm 24 A psalm of David. 24 The earth is the Lord’s and everything in it,     the world and its inhabitants too. 2 Because God is the one who established it on the seas;     God set it firmly on the waters. 3 Who can ascend the Lord’s mountain?     Who can stand in his holy sanctuary? 4 Only the one with clean hands and a pure heart;     the one who hasn’t made false promises,     the one who hasn’t sworn dishonestly. 5 That kind of person receives blessings from the Lord     and righteousness from the God who saves. 6 And that’s how things are     with the generation that seeks him—     that seeks the face of Jacob’s God.[a] Selah 7 Mighty gates: lift up your heads!     Ancient doors: rise up high!         So the glorious king can enter! 8 Who is this glorious king?     The Lord—strong and powerful!     The Lord—powerful in battle! 9 Mighty gates: lift up your heads!     Ancient doors: rise up high!         So the glorious king can enter! 10 Who is this glorious king?     The Lord of heavenly forces—         he is the glorious king! Selah Footnotes: Psalm 24:6 LXX, Syr; MT seek your face, Jacob Common English Bible (CEB), used with permission Copyright © 2011 by Common English Bible
