Psalms 23
On the first day of the week, a psalm for David.
-
1 The earth is the Lord's and the fulness thereof: the world, and all they that dwell therein.
-
2 For he hath founded it upon the seas; and hath prepared it upon the rivers.
-
3 Who shall ascend into the mountain of the Lord: or who shall stand in his holy place?
-
4 The innocent in hands, and clean of heart, who hath not taken his soul in vain, 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, of them that seek the face of the God of Jacob.
-
7 Lift up your gates, O ye princes, and be ye lifted up, O eternal gates: and the King of Glory shall enter in.
-
8 Who is this King of Glory? the Lord who is strong and mighty: the Lord mighty in battle.
-
9 Lift up your gates, O ye princes, and be ye lifted up, O eternal gates: and the King of Glory shall enter in.
-
10 Who is this King of Glory? the Lord of hosts, he is the King of Glory.
