< Psalms 84 >

1 How lovely are your tabernacles, O LORD of hosts!
In finem, Pro torcularibus filiis Core, Psalmus. Quam dilecta tabernacula tua Domine virtutum:
2 My soul longs, yea, even faints for the courts of the LORD: my heart and my flesh cries out for the living God.
concupiscit, et deficit anima mea in atria Domini: Cor meum, et caro mea exultaverunt in Deum vivum.
3 Yea, the sparrow has found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even your altars, O LORD of hosts, my King, and my God.
Etenim passer invenit sibi domum: et turtur nidum sibi, ubi ponat pullos suos: altaria tua Domine virtutum: Rex meus, et Deus meus.
4 Blessed are they that dwell in your house: they will be still praising you. (Selah)
Beati, qui habitant in domo tua Domine: in sæcula sæculorum laudabunt te.
5 Blessed is the man whose strength is in you; in whose heart are the ways of them.
Beatus vir, cuius est auxilium abs te: ascensiones in corde suo disposuit,
6 Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also fills the pools.
in valle lacrymarum in loco, quem posuit.
7 They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appears before God.
Etenim benedictionem dabit legislator, ibunt de virtute in virtutem: videbitur Deus deorum in Sion.
8 O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O God of Jacob. (Selah)
Domine Deus virtutum exaudi orationem meam: auribus percipe Deus Iacob.
9 Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of your anointed.
Protector noster aspice Deus: et respice in faciem Christi tui.
10 For a day in your 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.
Quia melior est dies una in atriis tuis super millia. Elegi abiectus esse in domo Dei mei: magis quam habitare in tabernaculis peccatorum.
11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.
Quia misericordiam, et veritatem diligit Deus: gratiam, et gloriam dabit Dominus.
12 O LORD of hosts, blessed is the man that trusts in you.
Non privabit bonis eos, qui ambulant in innocentia: Domine virtutum, beatus homo, qui sperat in te.
