1 The earth belongs unto the Lord,and all that it contains;The world that is inhabited,and all that there remains.
2 For the foundations thereofhe on the seas did lay,And he hath it establishedupon the floods to stay.
3 Who is the man that shall ascendinto the hill of God?Or who within his holy placeshall have a firm abode?
4 Whose hands are clean, whose heart is pure,and unto vanityWho hath not lifted up his soul,nor sworn deceitfully.
5 He from th' Eternal shall receivethe blessing him upon,And righteousness, ev'n from the Godof his salvation.
6 This is the generationthat after him enquire,O Jacob, who do seek thy facewith their whole heart's desire.
