PSALMS 24

1 The earth and everything in it belongs to Yahweh; all the people in the world belong to him, too, 2 because he caused the ground to be above the water, above the water that was deep below the surface of the earth. 3 Who will be allowed to go up on Zion Hill in Jerusalem, in order to stand and worship in Yahweh’s holy temple? 4 Only those whose actions [MTY] and thoughts are pure, who have not worshiped idols, and who do not tell lies when they have solemnly promised to tell the truth. 5 ◄They will be blessed by Yahweh/Yahweh will bless them►. When God judges them, he, who has saved them, will say that they ◄have done nothing wrong/are without fault►. 6 They are the ones who approach God, they are the ones who may worship God, the one we Israelis worship. (Think about that!) 7 Open up [APO] the temple gates in order that our glorious king may enter! 8 Do you know who the glorious king is? He is Yahweh, the one who is very strong [DOU]; He is Yahweh, who conquers all his enemies in battles! 9 Open up the temple gates in order that our glorious king may enter! 10 Do you know who the glorious king is? He is Yahweh almighty; he is our glorious king! (Think about that!)
