Psalm 24
Posted by sarahk at 10:50 AM | View blog reactions | Comments (11)

The King of Glory and His Kingdom
A Psalm of David.

1 The earth is the LORD's, and all its fullness,
The world and those who dwell therein.
2For He has founded it upon the seas,
And established it upon the waters.
3Who may ascend into the hill of the LORD?
Or who may stand in His holy place?
4He who has clean hands and a pure heart,
Who has not lifted up his soul to an idol,
Nor sworn deceitfully.
5He shall receive blessing from the LORD,
And righteousness from the God of his salvation.
6This is Jacob, the generation of those who seek Him,
Who seek Your face.Selah
7Lift up your heads, O you gates!
And be lifted up, you everlasting doors!
And the King of glory shall come in.
8Who is this King of glory?
The LORD strong and mighty,
The LORD mighty in battle.
9Lift up your heads, O you gates!
Lift up, you everlasting doors!
And the King of glory shall come in.
10Who is this King of glory?
The LORD of hosts,
He is the King of glory.Selah

Who is Selah?

"Selah" is a musical direction for the instruments to strike up and take over from the singer for a little bit.

Now whenever they read from Psalms in church, I am going to be hearing a drum solo in my head every few verses... :o)

#3 - Posted by: Outback_Jon on August 21, 2005 12:23 PM

Actually "Selah" according to Dictionary.com means: the end; a pause. I like to think of it as a word meaning pause and think about what you read, what it means.

#4 - Posted by: Carl on August 21, 2005 12:56 PM

It is actaully a command from God to reflect upon what he has just said. However in this context I beleive it is the the Godfather era Brando using a time machine to go back and reprise his role as Stanley in Steetcar, screaming "SELAH, SELAH..." with marbles and cotton in his bloated mouth. This performance is not well known and never reviewed because the half-monkey servant boy from The Island of Dr. Mareau led a cell of drug crazed mutant beast men back to the location shot and devoured the Godfather Brando. They then slipped unnoticed into an everyday French Quarter crowd...

Cool thanks. Do you know if this psalm is negotiable? If so, I vote to remove line 4. Or edit it to "He who has cleanish hands and a somewhat pure heart".

Otherwise, I think I'm in trouble :(


(hope it's ok to joke about god. If not, my apologies)

#6 - Posted by: Kevin on August 21, 2005 02:37 PM

Anybody else notice that 'selah' and 'ye-ha' sound kinda the same?

#7 - Posted by: Warren on August 21, 2005 03:09 PM

Wiki provides some useful information...

Wikipedia on "Selah"

Enjoy.

'Lift up, you everlasting doors!'

You were made by Craftsman and are commanded thus by Bob Vila!
Lift up lest ye void the warranty!

#9 - Posted by: SeanS on August 21, 2005 03:18 PM

Amen.

Now if only Arik Sharon had read this a few weeks ago...

Pomoze Bog.
