Psalm 84:1-12

Chapter 84
For the director, according to the Gittith, for the sons of Korah. A psalm. 1 How beloved are your dwelling places, LORD of hosts! 2 My soul longs, yes, even faints for the tabernacles of the LORD; my heart and my flesh sing for joy to the living God. 3 Even a bird has found a house, and a swallow a nest for herself, where she lays her young at your altars, LORD of hosts, my King and my God. 4 Blessed are those who dwell in your house; they will be still praising you. Selah. 5 Blessed are those whose strength is in you, in whose heart are the highways. 6 Blessed is the man whose strength is in you, who make highways in their heart. Passing through the valley of Baca, they make it a spring; also the early rain covers it with blessings. 7 They will go from strength to strength; they will appear before God in Zion. 8 LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer; give ear, God of Jacob. Selah. 9 Our shield, behold, O God, and look upon the face of your anointed. 10 For a day in your courts is better than a thousand. I have chosen to shelter in the house of my God rather than to dwell in the tents of wickedness. 11 For the LORD God is sun and shield; the LORD gives grace and glory; he does not withhold good from those who walk in integrity. 12 LORD of hosts, blessed is the man who trusts in you.
