# Chapter 84
|
|
1 How lovely is Your tabernacle,
|
|
O Lord of hosts!
|
|
2 My soul longs, yes, even faints
|
|
For the courts of the Lord;
|
|
My heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.
|
|
3 Even the sparrow has found a home,
|
|
And the swallow a nest for herself,
|
|
Where she may lay her young—
|
|
Even Your altars, O Lord of hosts,
|
|
My King and my God.
|
|
4 Blessed are those who dwell in Your house;
|
|
They will still be praising You. Selah
|
|
5 Blessed is the man whose strength is in You,
|
|
Whose heart is set on pilgrimage.
|
|
6 As they pass through the Valley of Baca,
|
|
They make it a spring;
|
|
The rain also covers it with pools.
|
|
7 They go from strength to strength;
|
|
Each one appears before God in Zion.
|
|
8 O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer;
|
|
Give ear, O God of Jacob! Selah
|
|
9 O God, behold our shield,
|
|
And look upon the face of Your anointed.
|
|
10 For a day in Your courts is better than a thousand.
|
|
I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God
|
|
Than dwell in the tents of wickedness.
|
|
11 For the Lord God is a sun and shield;
|
|
The Lord will give grace and glory;
|
|
No good thing will He withhold
|
|
From those who walk uprightly.
|
|
12 O Lord of hosts,
|
|
Blessed is the man who trusts in You! |
