Psalms 84

WEB · Bible Passage

Bible Text

[1] > How lovely are your dwellings, Yahweh of Hosts! [2] My soul longs, and even faints for the courts of Yahweh. 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, Yahweh of Hosts, 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. Everyone of them appears before God in Zion. [8] Yahweh, God of hosts, 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 Yahweh God is a sun and a shield. Yahweh will give grace and glory. He withholds no good thing from those who walk blamelessly. [12] Yahweh of Hosts, Blessed is the man who trusts in you.
