TNDL: “GOD, THE POSSESSOR OF ALL THINGS! THE EARTH IS THE LORD’S, AND THE FULLNESS THEREOF. PSALM 24:7-.”

Psalm 24 New King James Version (NKJV)


The King of Glory and His Kingdom


A Psalm of David.


24 The earth is the Lord’s, and all its fullness,


The world and those who dwell therein.


2 For He has founded it upon the seas,


And established it upon the [a]waters.


3 Who may ascend into the hill of the Lord?


Or who may stand in His holy place?


4 He who has clean hands and a pure heart,


Who has not lifted up his soul to an idol,


Nor sworn deceitfully.


5 He shall receive blessing from the Lord,


And righteousness from the God of his salvation.


6 This is Jacob, the generation of those who seek Him,


Who seek Your face. Selah


7 Lift up your heads, O you gates!


And be lifted up, you everlasting doors!


And the King of glory shall come in.


8 Who is this King of glory?


The Lord strong and mighty,


The Lord mighty in battle.


9 Lift up your heads, O you gates!


Lift up, you everlasting doors!


And the King of glory shall come in.


10 Who is this King of glory?


The Lord of hosts,


He is the King of glory. Selah

Psalm 24:2 Lit. rivers


(TNDL)


NAHUM 1:5 The mountains quake before him


and the hills melt away.


The earth trembles at his presence,


the world and all who live in it.


6 Who can withstand his indignation?


Who can endure his fierce anger?


His wrath is poured out like fire;


the rocks are shattered before him.


7 The Lord is good,


a refuge in times of trouble.


He cares for those who trust in him,


8 but with an overwhelming flood


he will make an end of Nineveh;


he will pursue his foes into the realm of darkness.


9 Whatever they plot against the Lord


he will bring[a] to an end;


trouble will not come a second time.


10 They will be entangled among thorns


and drunk from their wine;


they will be consumed like dry stubble.[b]


11 From you, Nineveh, has one come forth


who plots evil against the Lord


and devises wicked plans.


12 This is what the Lord says:


“Although they have allies and are numerous,


they will be destroyed and pass away.


Although I have afflicted you, Judah,


I will afflict you no more.


13 Now I will break their yoke from your neck


and tear your shackles away.”


14 The Lord has given a command concerning you, Nineveh:


“You will have no descendants to bear your name.


I will destroy the images and idols


that are in the temple of your gods.


I will prepare your grave,


for you are vile.”


15 Look, there on the mountains,


the feet of one who brings good news,


who proclaims peace!


Celebrate your festivals, Judah,


and fulfill your vows.


No more will the wicked invade you;


they will be completely destroyed.[c]
