[A Psalm for David on the first day of the week.]
[1] The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof; the world, and all that dwell in it.
[2] He has founded it upon the seas, and prepared it upon the rivers.
[3] Who shall go up to the mountain of the Lord, and who shall stand in his holy place?
[4] He that is innocent in his hands and pure in his heart; who has not lifted up his soul to vanity, nor sworn deceitfully to his neighbour.
[5] He shall receive a blessing from the Lord, and mercy from God his Saviour.
[6] This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek the face of the God of Jacob. Pause.
[7] Lift up your gates, ye princes, and be ye lifted up, ye everlasting doors; and the king of glory shall come in.
[8] Who is this king of Glory? the Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle.
[9] Lift up your gates, ye princes; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the king of glory shall come in.
[10] Who is this king of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is this king of glory.
