诗篇 84
1 可拉后裔的诗，交与伶长。用迦特乐器。 万军之耶和华啊， 你的居所何等可爱！
Lord, you who are the Commander of the armies of angels, your temple is very beautiful!
2 我羡慕渴想耶和华的院宇； 我的心肠，我的肉体向永生 神呼吁。
I [SYN] would like to be there; Yahweh, I desire that very much [DOU]. With all of my inner being I sing joyfully to you, the all-powerful God.
3 万军之耶和华—我的王，我的 神啊， 在你祭坛那里，麻雀为自己找着房屋， 燕子为自己找着抱雏之窝。
Even sparrows and swallows have built nests [near your temple, where you protect them] [DOU]; they take care of their young babies near the altars [where people offer sacrifices to] you, who are the commander of the armies of heaven, and my king and my God.
4 如此住在你殿中的便为有福！ 他们仍要赞美你。 (细拉)
(Happy are/You are pleased with) those who (live/continually worship) in your temple, constantly singing to praise you.
5 靠你有力量、心中想往锡安大道的， 这人便为有福！
Happy are those who [know that] you are the one who causes them to be strong, those who strongly desire to (make the trip/go) to Zion [Hill].
6 他们经过“流泪谷”，叫这谷变为泉源之地； 并有秋雨之福盖满了全谷。
While they travel through the [dry] Baca Valley, [you cause] it to become a place where there are springs of water, where the rains (in the autumn/before the cold season) fill the valley with pools of water.
7 他们行走，力上加力， 各人到锡安朝见 神。
[As a result, those who travel through there] become stronger/refreshed [knowing that] they will appear in your presence (on Zion [Hill]/in Jerusalem).
8 耶和华—万军之 神啊，求你听我的祷告！ 雅各的 神啊，求你留心听！ (细拉)
Yahweh, commander of the armies of heaven, listen to my prayer; God, who [is worshiped by us (descendants of] Jacob/Israeli people), hear [IDM] what I am saying!
9 神啊，你是我们的盾牌； 求你垂顾观看你受膏者的面！
God, be kind to [IDM] our king, the one who protects us [MTY], the one whom you have chosen [MTY] [to rule us].
10 在你的院宇住一日， 胜似在别处住千日； 宁可在我 神殿中看门， 不愿住在恶人的帐棚里。
[For me], spending one day in your temple is better than spending 1,000 days somewhere else; [standing] at the entrance to your temple, [ready to go inside], is better than living in the tents/homes where wicked [people live].
11 因为耶和华— 神是日头，是盾牌， 要赐下恩惠和荣耀。 他未尝留下一样好处不给那些行动正直的人。
Yahweh our God is [like] the sun [that shines on us] and [like] a shield [that protects us] [MET]; he is kind to [us] and honors [us]. Yahweh does not refuse to give any good thing/blessing to those who do what is right.
12 万军之耶和华啊， 倚靠你的人便为有福！
Yahweh, commander of the armies of heaven, (happy are/you are pleased with) those who trust in you!
