< Psalms 84 >
1 To the choirmaster on the Gittith of [the] sons of Korah a psalm. How! lovely [are] dwelling place your O Yahweh of hosts.
“To the chief musician upon Gittith, by the sons of Korach, a psalm.” How lovely are thy dwelling-places, O Lord of hosts!
2 It has longed and also it is exhausted - being my for [the] courts of Yahweh heart my and flesh my they shout for joy to God living.
My soul desired, yea, it also longed for the courts of the Lord: my heart and my flesh shout with joy unto the living God.
3 Also a bird - it has found a home and a swallow - a nest for itself which it has put young ones its with altars your O Yahweh of hosts king my and God my.
Even as the sparrow hath found a house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young: —[have I found] thy altars, O Lord of hosts, my King, and my God.
4 How blessed! [are those who] dwell of house your still they praise you (Selah)
Happy are they who dwell in thy house: they will be continually praising thee. (Selah)
5 How blessed! [is] a person [who] strength to him [is] in you [whom] highways [are] in heart their.
Happy is the man whose strong confidence is in thee, [all] whose heart reflecteth on the paths [of righteousness].
6 [those who] pass - In [the] valley of Baca a spring they make it also blessings it covers [it] early rain.
Passing through the valley of weeping, they will change it into a spring: also the early rain covereth it with blessings.
7 They go from strength to strength he presents himself to God in Zion.
They go from strength to strength, each of them appeareth before God in Zion.
8 O Yahweh God of hosts hear! prayer my give ear! O God of Jacob (Selah)
O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O God of Jacob. (Selah)
9 Shield our look at O God and pay attention to [the] face of anointed your.
[Thou, ] our shield, behold, O God, and look upon the face of thy anointed.
10 For [is] good a day in courts your more than a thousand I have chosen to stand at [the] threshold in [the] house of God my more than dwelling in [the] tents of wickedness.
For better is a day in thy courts than a thousand [elsewhere]: I would rather choose to wait at the threshold of the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
11 For [is] a sun - and a shield Yahweh God favor and honor he gives Yahweh not he withholds good to [those who] walk in blamelessness.
For a sun and shield is the Lord God; grace and glory will the Lord give; he will not withhold any good from those that walk with integrity.
12 O Yahweh of hosts how blessed! [is] anyone [who] trusts in you.
O Lord of hosts, happy is the man that trusteth in thee.
