The Book of Psalms

 

Chapter 84

 

 

1.

 

{To the chief Musician. Upon the Gittith. Of the sons of Korah. A Psalm.} How amiable are thy tabernacles, O Jehovah of hosts!

    
 
 

2.

 

My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of Jehovah; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living ùGod.

    
 
 

3.

 

Yea, the sparrow hath found a house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she layeth her young, thine altars, O Jehovah of hosts, my King and my God.

    
 
 

4.

 

Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: they will be constantly praising thee. Selah.

    
 
 

5.

 

Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee, -- they, in whose heart are the highways.

    
 
 

6.

 

Passing through the valley of Baca, they make it a well-spring; yea, the early rain covereth it with blessings.

    
 
 

7.

 

They go from strength to strength: [each one] will appear before God in Zion.

    
 
 

8.

 

Jehovah, God of hosts, hear my prayer; give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah.

    
 
 

9.

 

Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed.

    
 
 

10.

 

For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather stand at the threshold of the house of my God, than dwell in the tents of wickedness.

    
 
 

11.

 

For Jehovah Elohim is a sun and shield: Jehovah will give grace and glory; no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.

    
 
 

12.

 

Jehovah of hosts, blessed is the man that confideth in thee!
