< Psalms 84 >

1 TO THE OVERSEER. ON THE GITTITH. A PSALM OF THE SONS OF KORAH. How beloved Your dwelling places, YHWH of Hosts!
The salm of the sones of Chore. Lord of vertues, thi tabernaclis ben greetli loued;
2 My soul desired, indeed, it has also been consumed, For the courts of YHWH, My heart and my flesh cry aloud to the living God,
my soule coueitith, and failith in to the porchis of the Lord. Myn herte and my fleische; ful out ioyeden in to quyk God.
3 Even a sparrow has found a house, And a swallow a nest for herself, Where she has placed her brood—Your altars, O YHWH of Hosts, My king and my God.
For whi a sparewe fyndith an hous to it silf; and a turtle fyndith a neste to it silf, where it `schal kepe hise bryddis. Lord of vertues, thin auteris; my king, and my God.
4 O the blessedness of those inhabiting Your house, Yet they praise You. (Selah)
Lord, blessid ben thei that dwellen in thin hous; thei schulen preise thee in to the worldis of worldis.
5 O the blessedness of a man whose strength is in You, Highways [are] in their heart.
Blessid is the man, whos help is of thee; he hath disposid stiyngis in his herte,
6 Those passing through a valley of weeping make it a spring, The early rain covers it with pools.
in the valei of teeris, in the place which he hath set.
7 They go from strength to strength, He appears to God in Zion.
For the yyuer of the lawe schal yyue blessyng, thei schulen go fro vertu in to vertu; God of goddis schal be seyn in Sion.
8 O YHWH, God of Hosts, hear my prayer, Give ear, O God of Jacob. (Selah)
Lord God of vertues, here thou my preier; God of Jacob, perseyue thou with eeris.
9 Our shield, see, O God, And behold the face of Your anointed,
God, oure defender, biholde thou; and biholde in to the face of thi crist.
10 For a day in Your courts [is] good, O Teacher! I have chosen rather to be at the threshold, In the house of my God, Than to dwell in tents of wickedness.
For whi o dai in thin hallis is bettere; than a thousynde. I chees to be `an out cast in the hous of my God; more than to dwelle in the tabernaclis of synneris.
11 For YHWH God [is] a sun and a shield, YHWH gives grace and glory. He does not withhold good To those walking in uprightness.
For God loueth merci and treuthe; the Lord schal yyue grace and glorie.
12 YHWH of Hosts! O the blessedness of a man trusting in You.
He schal not depriue hem fro goodis, that gon in innocence; Lord of vertues, blessid is the man, that hopith in thee.
