He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.

Verse 4 is found in chapter 24 of Psalms. Psalm 24 begins with a cosmic affirmation: the earth belongs to the Lord because he founded it. From there it asks who may ascend the holy mountain and answers with clean hands, a pure heart, and rejection of falsehood. The final section adopts processional language around the King of glory, connecting entrance into the sanctuary with the universal sovereignty of God.

Der unschuldige Hände hat und reines Herzens ist; der nicht Lust hat zu loser Lehre und schwört nicht fälschlich:
El limpio de manos, y puro de corazón: El que no ha elevado su alma a la vanidad, Ni jurado con engaño.
El de manos limpias y corazón puro, que no ha invocado mi vida en vano ni ha jurado con engaño.
Celui qui a les mains innocentes et le coeur pur; Celui qui ne livre pas son âme au mensonge, Et qui ne jure pas pour tromper.
L’uomo innocente di mani, e puro di cuore; Il qual non eleva l’animo a vanità, e non giura con frode.
Aquele que é limpo de mãos e puro de coração, que não entrega a sua alma à vaidade, nem jura enganosamente.
就是手潔心清,意念不向虛妄, 起誓不懷詭詐的人。
