¹ A David psalm. GOD claims Earth and everything in it, God claims World and all who live on it. ² He built it on Ocean foundations, laid it out on River girders. ³ Who can climb Mount GOD? Who can scale the holy north-face? ⁴ Only the clean-handed, only the pure-hearted; Men who won't cheat, women who won't seduce. ⁵ GOD is at their side; with GOD's help they make it. ⁶ This, Jacob, is what happens to God-seekers, God-questers. ⁷ Wake up, you sleepyhead city! Wake up, you sleepyhead people! King-Glory is ready to enter. ⁸ Who is this King-Glory? GOD, armed and battle-ready. ⁹ Wake up, you sleepyhead city! Wake up, you sleepyhead people! King-Glory is ready to enter. ¹⁰ Who is this King-Glory? GOD of the angel armies: he is King-Glory.
