1 A Psalm of David. The earth is HaShem'S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
2 For He hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.
3 Who shall ascend into the mountain of HaShem? and who shall stand in His holy place?
4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not taken My name in vain, and hath not sworn deceitfully.
5 He shall receive a blessing from HaShem, and righteousness from the G-d of his salvation.
6 Such is the generation of them that seek after Him, that seek Thy face, even Jacob. Selah
7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates, and be ye lifted up, ye everlasting doors; that the King of glory may come in.
8 'Who is the King of glory?' 'The HaShem strong and mighty, HaShem mighty in battle.'
9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates, yea, lift them up, ye everlasting doors; that the King of glory may come in.
10 'Who then is the King of glory?' 'The HaShem of hosts; He is the King of glory.' Selah
