Psalms 24

The earth is the LORD's and everything in it, the world and everyone living in it. Because he founded it on the seas and set it up on the rivers. Who'll go up the hill of the LORD? Who'll stand in his holy dwelling? The one with clean hands and a pure heart, who hasn't set his heart on worthless things or sworn deceitfully.

Who'll stand in his holy dwelling? The one with clean hands and a pure heart, who hasn't set his heart on worthless things or sworn deceitfully. He will receive blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation. This is the generation of those who seek him, who seek your face, God of Jacob. Selah.

The earth is the LORD’s, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods. Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation. This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah.
