- Chapter 84 -

Better is one day in your judgments

(John 1:14-18)
1
For the chief musician; set to the Gittith style. A psalm of the sons of Korah. How lovely is the place where you live, Yahweh of hosts!
2
I long for the courts of Yahweh, my desire for it has made me exhausted. My heart and all of my being call out to the living God.
3
Even the sparrow has found her a house and the swallow a nest for herself where she may lay her young near your altars, Yahweh of hosts, my King, and my God.
4
Blessed are they who live in your house; they praise you continually. Selah.
5
Blessed is the man whose strength is in you, in whose heart are the highways up to Zion.
6
Passing through the Valley of Tears, they find springs of water to drink. The autumn rains cover it with blessings.
7
They go from strength to strength; every one of them appears before God in Zion.
8
Yahweh God of hosts, hear my prayer; God of Jacob, listen to what I am saying! Selah.
9
God, watch over our shield; show concern for your anointed.
10
For one day in your courts is better than a thousand elsewhere. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to live within the tents of the wicked.
11
For Yahweh God is our sun and shield; Yahweh will give grace and glory; he does not withhold any good thing from those who walk in integrity.
12
Yahweh of hosts, blessed is the man who trusts in you.

How lovely are your dwellings, LORD of Armies!
2
My soul longs, and even faints for the courts of the LORD. My heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.
3
Yes, the sparrow has found a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may have her young, near your altars, LORD of Armies, my King, and my God.
4
Blessed are those who dwell in your house. They are always praising you. Selah.
5
Blessed are those whose strength is in you, who have set their hearts on a pilgrimage.
6
Passing through the valley of Weeping, they make it a place of springs. Yes, the autumn rain covers it with blessings.
7
They go from strength to strength. Every one of them appears before God in Zion.
8
LORD, God of Armies, hear my prayer. Listen, God of Jacob. Selah.
9
Behold, God our shield, look at 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 to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
11
For the LORD God is a sun and a shield. The LORD will give grace and glory. He withholds no good thing from those who walk blamelessly.
12
LORD of Armies, blessed is the man who trusts in you.
