Psalm 24

Albeit the Lord God hathe made and gouerneth all the worlde, yet towards his choſen people his gracious goodnes doeth moſte abundantly appeare, in that among thẽ he wil haue his dwelling place. Which thogh it was appointed among the children of Abrahãm, yet onely thei do entre aright into this Sanctuarie, which are the true worſhipers of God, purged from the ſinful filth of this worlde. 7 Finally he magnifieth Gods grace for the buylding of the Temple, to the end he might ſtirre vp all the faithful to the true ſeruice of God.
¶ A Pſalme of Dauid.
1.THe earth is the Lords, and all that therein is: the worlde and they that dwel therein.
2.For he hathe founded it vpon the ſeas: and eſtabliſhed it vpon the floods.
3.Who ſhal aſcende into the mountaine of the Lord? and who ſhal ſtand in his holie place?
4.Euen he that hathe innocẽt hãds, & a pure heart: which hathe not lift vp his minde vnto vanitie, nor ſworne deceitfully.
5.He ſhal receiue a bleſsing frõ the Lord, & righteouſnes frõ the God of his ſaluaciõ.
6.This is the generation of them that ſeke him, of them that ſeke thy face, this is Iaakób. Sélah.
7.Lift vp your heades ye gates, and be ye lift vp ye euerlaſting dores, and the King of glorie ſhal come in.
8.Who is this King of glorie? the Lord, ſtrong and mightie, euẽ the Lord mightie in battel.
9.Lift vp your heades, ye gates, and lift vp your ſelues, ye euerlaſting dores, & the King of glorie ſhal come in.
10.Who is this King of glorie? the Lord of hoſtes, he is the King of glorie. Sélah.
