<< Psalm 24


Who is fit to hold power

and worthy to act in God's place?


Those with a passion for the truth,

who are horrified by injustice,

who act with mercy to the poor

and take up the cause of the helpless,

who have let go of selfish concerns

and see the whole earth as sacred,

refusing to exploit her creatures

or to foul her waters and lands.


Their strength is in their compassion;

God's light shines through their hearts.

Their children's children will bless them,

and the work of their hands will endure.



(The Psalms, translated by Stephen Mitchell) >>
