1Of David. A psalm. The earth is the LORD's, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it;

1The earth is the LORD’s, and everything in it. The world and all its people belong to him.

2for he founded it on the seas and established it on the waters.

2For he laid the earth’s foundation on the seas and built it on the ocean depths.

3Who may ascend the mountain of the LORD? Who may stand in his holy place?

3Who may climb the mountain of the LORD? Who may stand in his holy place?

4The one who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not trust in an idol or swear by a false god.

4Only those whose hands and hearts are pure, who do not worship idols and never tell lies.

5They will receive blessing from the LORD and vindication from God their Savior.

5They will receive the LORD’s blessing and have a right relationship with God their savior.

6Such is the generation of those who seek him, who seek your face, God of Jacob.

6Such people may seek you and worship in your presence, O God of Jacob. Interlude
