Psalms • Chapter 84
1
<To the chief music-maker; put to the Gittith A Psalm. Of the sons of Korah.> How dear are your tents, O Lord of armies!
2
The passion of my soul's desire is for the house of the Lord; my heart and my flesh are crying out for the living God (Elohim).
3
The little birds have places for themselves, where they may put their young, even your altars, O Lord of armies, my King and my God (Elohim).
4
Happy are they whose resting-place is in your house: they will still be praising you. (Selah.)
5
Happy is the man whose strength is in you; in whose heart are the highways to Zion.
6
Going through the valley of balsam-trees, they make it a place of springs; it is clothed with blessings by the early rain.
7
They go from strength to strength; every one of them comes before God (Elohim) in Zion.
8
O Lord God (Elohim) of armies, let my prayer come to you: give ear, O God (Elohim) of Jacob. (Selah.)
9
O God (Elohim), let your eyes be on him who is our safe cover, and let your heart be turned to your king.
10
For a day in your house is better than a thousand. It is better to be a door-keeper in the house of my God (Elohim), than to be living in the tents of sin.
11
The Lord God (Elohim) is our sun and our strength: the Lord will give Grace and glory: he will not keep back any good thing from those whose ways are upright.
12
O Lord of armies, happy is the man whose hope is in you.
