Combines Psalm 24's requirement of clean hands and a pure he

Quote★★★★★

Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us... let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith. Ps. 24:3-4; He. 10:19-20, 22

— David

Also attributed to: Paul
