3
Who shall ascend into the mountain of the Lord: or who shall stand in his holy place?
4
The innocent in hands, and clean of heart, who hath not taken his soul in vain, nor sworn deceitfully to his neighbour.
5
He shall receive a blessing from the Lord, and mercy from God his Saviour.
6
This is the generation of them that seek him, of them that seek the face of the God of Jacob.
7
Lift up your gates, O ye princes, and be ye lifted up, O eternal gates: and the King of Glory shall enter in.
8
Who is this King of Glory? the Lord who is strong and mighty: the Lord mighty in battle.
9
Lift up your gates, O ye princes, and be ye lifted up, O eternal gates: and the King of Glory shall enter in.

Who is this King of Glory? the Lord of hosts, he is the King of Glory.
