< Psalms 84 >
1 [For the Chief Musician. On an instrument of Gath. A Psalm by the sons of Korah.] How lovely are your dwellings, YHWH of hosts.
in finem pro torcularibus filiis Core psalmus quam dilecta tabernacula tua Domine virtutum
2 My soul longs, yes, yearns for the courts of YHWH. My heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.
concupiscit et defecit anima mea in atria Domini cor meum et caro mea exultavit in Deum vivum
3 Yes, the sparrow has found a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may have her young, near your altars, YHWH 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 those who dwell in your house. They are ever praising you. (Selah)
beati qui habitant in domo tua in saecula saeculorum laudabunt te diapsalma
5 Blessed are those whose strength is in you, who have set their hearts on a pilgrimage.
beatus vir cui est auxilium abs te ascensiones in corde suo disposuit
6 Passing through the Valley of Baca, he makes it into a spring. Yes, the autumn rain covers it with blessings.
in valle lacrimarum in loco quem posuit
7 They go from strength to strength. Everyone of them appears before God in Zion.
etenim benedictiones dabit legis dator ibunt de virtute in virtutem videbitur Deus deorum in Sion
8 YHWH, the God of hosts, hear my prayer. Listen, God of Jacob. (Selah)
Domine Deus virtutum exaudi orationem meam auribus percipe Deus Iacob diapsalma
9 Look, God our shield, look at 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 would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
quia melior est dies una in atriis tuis super milia elegi abiectus esse in domo Dei mei magis quam habitare in tabernaculis peccatorum
11 For YHWH God is a sun and a shield. YHWH will give grace and glory. He withholds no good thing from those who walk blamelessly.
quia misericordiam et veritatem diligit Deus gratiam et gloriam dabit Dominus
12 YHWH of hosts, blessed is the man who trusts in you.
non privabit bonis eos qui ambulant in innocentia Domine virtutum beatus vir qui sperat in te
