Psalm 24

To our God belongs the whole world and all it contains
the whole world and all who live in it.
This means that God owns the entire world, all people, nations, and species of creatures.
He founded it upon the oceans and established it on the waters beneath.
This is symbolic of God who founded our world on the purification of baptism.
Who may ascend to Yahweh's mountain, who may stand at Yahweh's holy shrine.
The mountain is the mountain of our hearts and the shrine is the shrine of the blessed sacrament.
The man who has clean hands and a pure heart is one that 
Speaks truth and his heart is meek and humble.
He does not lift up his sole to a false God.
This means that his God, Jesus, has first place in his heart.

Amen
