1. Psalm 24 TPT
(NLT)
Yahweh claims the world as his.
Everything and everyone belong to him!
He’s the one who pushed back oceans to let the dry ground appear,
planting firm foundations for the earth.
Who Comes before the King?
Who, then, is allowed to ascend the mountain of Yahweh?
And who has the privilege of entering into God’s Holy Place?
Those who are clean—whose works and ways are pure,
whose hearts are true and sealed by the truth,
those who never deceive, whose words are sure.
They will receive Yahweh’s blessing
and righteousness given by the Savior-God.
They will stand before God,
for they seek the pleasure of God’s face, the God of Jacob. So wake up, you living gateways!
Lift up your heads, you doorways of eternity! Welcome the King of Glory,
for he is about to come through you.
You ask, “Who is this King of Glory?”
Yahweh, armed and ready for battle,
Yahweh, invincible in every way!
So wake up, you living gateways, and rejoice!
Fling wide, you eternal doors!
Here he comes; the King of Glory is ready to come in.
You ask, “Who is this King of Glory?”
He is Yahweh, armed and ready for battle,
the Mighty One, the invincible commander of heaven’s hosts! Yes, he is the King of Glory!
