Psalms 84
1 To the chief Musician. Upon the Gittith. Of the sons of Korah. A Psalm. How amiable are thy tabernacles, O Jehovah of hosts!
To him that excelleth upon Gittith. A Psalme committed to the sonnes of Korah. O Lord of hostes, howe amiable are thy Tabernacles!
2 My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of Jehovah; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.
My soule longeth, yea, and fainteth for the courtes of the Lord: for mine heart and my flesh reioyce in the liuing God.
3 Yea, the sparrow hath found a house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she layeth her young, thine altars, O Jehovah of hosts, my King and my God.
Yea, the sparrowe hath found her an house, and the swallow a nest for her, where she may lay her yong: euen by thine altars, O Lord of hostes, my King and my God.
4 Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: they will be constantly praising thee. (Selah)
Blessed are they that dwell in thine house: they will euer praise thee. (Selah)
5 Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee, — they, in whose heart are the highways.
Blessed is the man, whose strength is in thee, and in whose heart are thy wayes.
6 Passing through the valley of Baca, they make it a well-spring; yea, the early rain covereth it with blessings.
They going through the vale of Baca, make welles therein: the raine also couereth the pooles.
7 They go from strength to strength: [each one] will appear before God in Zion.
They goe from strength to strength, till euery one appeare before God in Zion.
8 Jehovah, God of hosts, hear my prayer; give ear, O God of Jacob. (Selah)
O Lord God of hostes, heare my prayer: hearken, O God of Iaakob. (Selah)
9 Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed.
Beholde, O God, our shielde, and looke vpon the face of thine Anointed.
10 For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather stand at the threshold of the house of my God, than dwell in the tents of wickedness.
For a day in thy courtes is better then a thousand other where: I had rather be a doore keeper in the House of my God, then to dwell in the Tabernacles of wickednesse.
11 For Jehovah Elohim is a sun and shield: Jehovah will give grace and glory; no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.
For the Lord God is the sunne and shielde vnto vs: the Lord will giue grace and glory, and no good thing will he withhold from them that walke vprightly.
12 Jehovah of hosts, blessed is the man that confideth in thee!
O Lord of hostes, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.
