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.

For the leader. On the gittith. Of the Korahites, a psalm. How dearly loved is the place where you live, 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.

How I long and yearn for the courts of the Lord. Now heart and flesh cry for joy to 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 the sparrow has found her a home and the swallow a nest, to lay her young, near your altar, Lord of hosts, my king and my God.

4 How blessed! [are those who] dwell of house your still they praise you (Selah)

Happy those who live in your house, praising you evermore. (Selah)

5 How blessed! [is] a person [who] strength to him [is] in you [whom] highways [are] in heart their.

Happy those whose strength is in you, people with pilgrim hearts.

6 [those who] pass - In [the] valley of Baca a spring they make it also blessings it covers [it] early rain.

As they pass through the valley of tears, they make it a place of fountains, clothed with the blessings of early rain.

7 They go from strength to strength he presents himself to God in Zion.

From rampart to rampart on they march, till at last God reveals himself in Zion.

8 O Yahweh God of hosts hear! prayer my give ear! O God of Jacob (Selah)

Lord, God of hosts, hear my prayer, attend, O God of Jacob. (Selah)

9 Shield our look at O God and pay attention to [the] face of anointed your.

Behold, O God, our defender, and look upon your 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 a single day in your courts than a thousand in my own chambers: better stand at the door of the house of my God than live in the tents of ungodliness,

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 the Lord is sun and shield, the Lord gives grace and glory. He withholds no good thing from the life that is blameless.

12 O Yahweh of hosts how blessed! [is] anyone [who] trusts in you.

Lord of hosts, happy those whose trust is in you.
