1The earth belongs unto the Lord, and all that it contains; The world that is inhabited, and all that there remains. | 2For the foundations thereof he on the seas did lay, And he hath it established upon the floods to stay. | 3Who is the man that shall ascend into the hill of God? Or who within his holy place shall have a firm abode? | 4Whose hands are clean, whose heart is pure, and unto vanity Who hath not lifted up his soul, nor sworn deceitfully. | 5He from th’ Eternal shall receive the blessing him upon, And righteousness, ev’n from the God of his salvation. | 6This is the generation that after him enquire, O Jacob, who do seek thy face with their whole heart’s desire. | 7Ye gates, lift up your heads on high; ye doors that last for aye, Be lifted up, that so the King of glory enter may. | 8But who of glory is the King? The mighty Lord is this; Ev’n that same Lord, that great in might and strong in battle is. | 9Ye gates, lift up your heads; ye doors, doors that do last for aye, Be lifted up, that so the King of glory enter may. | 10But who is he that is the King of glory? who is this? The Lord of hosts, and none but he, the King of glory is. | |
