A psalm by David.

23 The Lord is my shepherd.
I am never in need.
He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside peaceful waters.
He renews my soul.
He guides me along the paths of righteousness
for the sake of his name.
Even though I walk through the dark valley of death,
because you are with me, I fear no harm.
Your rod and your staff give me courage.

You prepare a banquet for me while my enemies watch.
You anoint my head with oil.
My cup overflows.

Certainly, goodness and mercy will stay close to me all the days of my life,
and I will remain in the Lord’s house for days without end.

A psalm by David.

24 The earth and everything it contains are the Lord’s.
The world and all who live in it are his.
He laid its foundation on the seas
and set it firmly on the rivers.

Who may go up the Lord’s mountain?
Who may stand in his holy place?
⌞The one who⌟ has clean hands and a pure heart
and does not long for what is false
or lie when he is under oath.
⌞This person⌟ will receive a blessing from the Lord
and righteousness from God, his savior.
This is the person who seeks him,
who searches for the face of the God of Jacob.[a] Selah

Lift your heads, you gates.
Be lifted, you ancient doors,
so that the king of glory may come in.

Who is this king of glory?
The Lord, strong and mighty!
The Lord, heroic in battle!

Lift your heads, you gates.
Be lifted, you ancient doors,
so that the king of glory may come in.

10 Who, then, is this king of glory?
The Lord of Armies is the king of glory! Selah
