The earth is the LORD’S, and the fulness
thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. For he hath
founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the
floods.
Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in
his holy place? He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who
hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.
He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness
from the God of his salvation. This is the generation of
them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah.
Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting
doors; and the King of glory shall come in. Who is this
King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in
battle. Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up,
ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. Who is
this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, he is the King of
glory. Selah. (Psalm 24)

The earth and the fullness with which it is
stored,
The world and its dwellers belong to the Lord;
For He on the seas its foundations has laid,
And firm on the waters its pillars has stayed.
What man shall the hill of Jehovah ascend,
And who in the place of His presence attend?
The man of pure heart and of hands without stain,
Who swears not to falsehood nor loves what is vain.
That man ever blest of Jehovah shall live,
The God of salvation shall righteousness give;
For this is the people, yea, this is the race,
The Israel true that is seeking His face.
