PSALM 23 (24)

The land and its fullness
are the Lord's,
as is the world
and its inhabitants,
for he has founded it
upon the seas,
and established it
upon the rivers.
Who ascends the
mountain of the Lord,
and shall stand in
his holy place,
with innocent hands
and clean of heart,
who has not raised up
his soul in vain,
and who has not
sworn falsely,
that one shall receive
the blessing of the Lord
and justice from God,
his savior.
This is the generation
of those who seek him,
of those who seek the face
of the God of Jacob.

Raise up your heads,
O gates,
be raised, O eternal
portals,
and the king of glory
will enter.
Who is this king
of glory?
The Lord, strong and powerful,
The Lord, strong in battle.
Raise up your heads,
O gates,
Rise up, O eternal
portals,
and the king of glory
will enter.
Who is this king
of glory?
The Lord of armies,
he is the king
of glory.
