For the Chief Musician. On an instrument of Gath. A Psalm by the sons of Korah.
[1] How lovely are your dwellings,Yahweh of Armies!
[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 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] Yahweh, 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 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 Armies,
blessed is the man who trusts in you.
King James Version
To the chief Musician H5329 upon Gittith, H1665 A Psalm H4210 for the sons H1121 of Korah. H7141
[1] How amiable H3039 are thy tabernacles, H4908 O Lord H3068 of hosts! H6635[2] My soul H5315 longeth, H3700 yea, even fainteth H3615 for the courts H2691 of the Lord: H3068
My heart H3820 and my flesh H1320 crieth out H7442 for the living H2416 God. H410
[3] Yea, the sparrow H6833 hath found H4672 an house, H1004 and the swallow H1866 a nest H7064 for herself, where she may lay H7896 her young, H667
Even thine altars, H4196 O Lord H3068 of hosts, H6635 my King, H4428 and my God. H430
[4] Blessed H835 are they that dwell H3427 in thy house: H1004
They will be still praising H1984 thee. H5542 Selah.
[5] Blessed H835 is the man H120 whose strength H5797 is
in thee; In whose heart H3824 are the ways H4546 of them.
[6] Who passing H5674 through the valley H6010 of Baca H1056 H1057 make H7896 it a well; H4599
The rain H4175 also H1571 filleth H5844§ the pools. H1293
[7] They go H3212 from strength H2428 to strength, H2428§
Every one of them in Zion H6726 appeareth H7200 before God. H430
[8] O Lord H3068 God H430 of hosts, H6635 hear H8085 my prayer: H8605
Give ear, H238 O God H430 of Jacob. H3290 Selah. H5542
[9] Behold, H7200 O God H430 our shield, H4043
And look H5027 upon the face H6440 of thine anointed. H4899
[10] For H3588 a day H3117 in thy courts H2691
Is better H2896 than a thousand. H505
I had rather H977 be a doorkeeper H5605§ in the house H1004 of my God, H430
Than to dwell H1752 in the tents H168 of wickedness. H7562
[11] For H3588 the Lord H3068 God H430 is a sun H8121 and shield: H4043
The Lord H3068 will give H5414 grace H2580 and glory: H3519 No good H2896 thing will he withhold H4513 from them that walk H1980 uprightly. H8549
[12] O Lord H3068 of hosts, H6635
Blessed H835 is the man H120 that trusteth H982 in thee.
