Psal. 24. Domini est terra.

Psalmus Davidis.

1

The earth, with all those mynes unfound,
within her wombe that swell,
Is all the Lords! the Worlds great round,
and they that therein dwell.

2

He founded it upon the seas,
and shor'd them under ground:
Establish't fast the solid Leas,
the liquid flouds to bound.

3

The Hill of Jah who shall ascend,
so high to set his feet?
Who in his holy place attend,

41

for such a service meet?

4

He that cleane palmes, pure heart hath borne,
his soule to vanitie
Hath not up-lifted, hath not sworne
an oath deceitfully.

5

He from the Lord on him bestow'd
a blessing shall receive;
And justice shall the mighty God
of his salvation give.

6

Of them that seeke him, this the race,
this Jacobs Israel:
Of them that strive to seeke thy face,
this Jacobs Peniel.

Selah.


7

Lift up your heads, ye doores be rais'd,
eternall gates give way,
That enter, highly to be prais'd,
the King of Glorie may.

8

Who is the King of Glorie? this,
whose praises spread so farre?
The strong and mighty Lord it is,
the mighty Lord of warre.

9

Lift up your heads, ye doores be rais'd,
eternall gates give way,
That enter, highly to be prais'd,
the King of Glorie may.

10

Who is the King of Glorie? this,
of whom our praises sing?
The Mighty Lord of hosts it is,
of Glorie he is King.

Selah.
