NET BibleHolman Christian Standard Bible
1A psalm of David. The LORD owns the earth and all it contains, the world and all who live in it. 1A Davidic psalm. The earth and everything in it, the world and its inhabitants, belong to the LORD;
2For he set its foundation upon the seas, and established it upon the ocean currents. 2for He laid its foundation on the seas and established it on the rivers.
3Who is allowed to ascend the mountain of the LORD? Who may go up to his holy dwelling place? 3Who may ascend the mountain of the LORD? Who may stand in His holy place?
4The one whose deeds are blameless and whose motives are pure, who does not lie, or make promises with no intention of keeping them. 4The one who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not set his mind on what is false, and who has not sworn deceitfully.
5Such godly people are rewarded by the LORD, and vindicated by the God who delivers them. 5He will receive blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
6Such purity characterizes the people who seek his favor, Jacob's descendants, who pray to him. (Selah) 6Such is the generation of those who seek Him, who seek the face of the God of Jacob. Selah

8Who is this majestic king? The LORD who is strong and mighty! The LORD who is mighty in battle! 8Who is this King of glory? The LORD, strong and mighty, the LORD, mighty in battle.
9Look up, you gates! Rise up, you eternal doors! Then the majestic king will enter! 9Lift up your heads, you gates! Rise up, ancient doors! Then the King of glory will come in.
10Who is this majestic king? The LORD who commands armies! He is the majestic king! (Selah) 10Who is He, this King of glory? The LORD of Hosts, He is the King of glory. Selah
