Psalms 84
King James Version
1¶ To the chief Musician upon Gittith, A Psalm for the sons of Korah. How amiable thy tabernacles, O LORD of hosts!2My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of the LORD: my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God.3Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, thine altars, O LORD of hosts, my King, and my God.4Blessed they that dwell in thy house: they will be still praising thee. Selah.5Blessed the man whose strength in thee; in whose heart the ways .6passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools.7They go from strength to strength, in Zion appeareth before God.8¶ O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah.9Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed.10For a day in thy courts better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.11For the LORD God a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.12O LORD of hosts, blessed the man that trusteth in thee.
