Chapter 84

1

How amiable are thy atabernacles, O LORD of hosts!

2

My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of the LORD: my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God.

3

Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O LORD of hosts, my King, and my God.

4

Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: they will be still praising thee. Selah.

5

Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; in whose heart are the ways of them.

6

Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools.

7

They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appeareth before God.

8

O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah.

9

Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed.

10

For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had 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 shield: the LORD will 1give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.
1 Gen 15:1 Psa 58:11, Heb 11:6

12

O LORD of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.
