Psalms 84
Jewish Publication Society of America Version (JPS1917)
1 (84-1) For the Leader; upon the Gittith. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. (84-2) How lovely are Thy tabernacles, O LORD of hosts!
2 (84-3) My soul yearneth, yea, even pineth for the courts of the LORD; my heart and my flesh sing for joy unto the living God.
3 (84-4) Yea, the sparrow hath found a house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young; Thine altars, O LORD of hosts, my King, and my God — .
4 (84-5) Happy are they that dwell in Thy house, they are ever praising Thee. Selah
5 (84-6) Happy is the man whose strength is in Thee; in whose heart are the highways.
6 (84-7) Passing through the valley of Baca they make it a place of springs; yea, the early rain clotheth it with blessings.
7 (84-8) They go from strength to strength, every one of them appeareth before God in Zion.
8 (84-9) O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer; give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah
9 (84-10) Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of Thine anointed.
10 (84-11) 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 to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
11 (84-12) For the LORD God is a sun and a shield; the LORD giveth grace and glory; no good thing will He withhold from them that walk uprightly.
12 (84-13) O LORD of hosts, happy is the man that trusteth in Thee.
