The earth is Jehovah's and all it contains;
The world and its people belong to him.
For he built it upon the ocean waters
And founded it upon the rivers and streams.
Who may ascend the mountain of Zion
And stand in Jehovah's holy Temple?
He whose hands are clean and whose heart is pure,
He who will not deign to worship an idol
Or swear by a false god deceitfully.
From Jehovah will he receive a blessing,
The vindication of divine salvation.
Such ones may entreat the aid of Jacob's god.
Open the gates, fling wide the ancient doors!
That the glorious sovereign might enter.
Who is this glorious sovereign? --- Jehovah!
Strong and mighty, and doughty in battle.
Open the gates, fling wide the ancient doors!
That the glorious sovereign might enter.
Who is this glorious sovereign? --- Jehovah!
The almighty commander of armies,
He is the glorious sovereign!
