Who may stand in His holy place? 4He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to an idol (to falsehood)b 5He will receive blessing from the LORD {YHWH} and vindication from the God {Elohe} of his salvation. 6Such is the generation of those who seek Him, who seek Your face, O God of Jacob [who seek your face, O Jacob].c 7Lift up your⁺ heads, O gates! Be lifted up, O ancient doors, that the King of Glory may enter! 8Who is this King of Glory? The LORD {YHWH} strong and mighty, 9Lift up your⁺ heads, O gates! Be lifted up, O ancient doors, that the King of Glory may enter! 10Who is He, this King of Glory? The LORD {YHWH} of Hosts— He is the King of Glory.
