1A Psalm of David. To Jehovah <FI>is<Fi> the earth and its fulness, The world and the inhabitants in it.
1 The earth is the Lord's, with all its wealth; the world and all the people living in it.
2For He on the seas hath founded it, And on the floods He doth establish it.
2For by him it was based on the seas, and made strong on the deep rivers.
3Who goeth up into the hill of Jehovah? And who riseth up in His holy place?
3Who may go up into the hill of the Lord? and who may come into his holy place?
4The clean of hands, and pure of heart, Who hath not lifted up to vanity his soul, Nor hath sworn to deceit.
4He who has clean hands and a true heart; whose desire has not gone out to foolish things, who has not taken a false oath.
5He beareth away a blessing from Jehovah, Righteousness from the God of his salvation.
5He will have blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
6This <FI>is<Fi> a generation of those seeking Him. Seeking Thy face, O Jacob! Selah.
6This is the generation of those whose hearts are turned to you, even to your face, O God of Jacob. (Selah.)
7Lift up, O gates, your heads, And be lifted up, O doors age-during, And come in doth the king of glory!
7Let your heads be lifted up, O doors; be lifted up, O you eternal doors: that the King of glory may come in.
8Who <FI>is<Fi> this--`the king of glory?' Jehovah--strong and mighty, Jehovah, the mighty in battle.
8Who is the King of glory? The Lord of strength and power, the Lord strong in war.
