84:1 For the choir director: on the Gittith. A psalm of the sons of Korah. How lovely is your dwelling place, Lord of Armies.
84:2 I long and yearn for the courts of the Lord; my heart and flesh cry out for the living God.
84:3 Even a sparrow finds a home, and a swallow, a nest for herself where she places her young— near your altars, Lord of Armies, my King and my God.
84:4 How happy are those who reside in your house, who praise you continually.Selah
84:5 Happy are the people whose strength is in you, whose hearts are set on pilgrimage.
84:6 As they pass through the Valley of Baca, they make it a source of spring water; even the autumn rain will cover it with blessings.
84:7 They go from strength to strength; each appears before God in Zion.
84:8 Lord God of Armies, hear my prayer; listen, God of Jacob.Selah
84:9 Consider our shield, God; look on the face of your anointed one.
84:10 Better a day in your courts than a thousand anywhere else. I would rather stand at the threshold of the house of my God than live in the tents of wicked people.
84:11 For the Lord God is a sun and shield. The Lord grants favor and honor; he does not withhold the good from those who live with integrity.
84:12 Happy is the person who trusts in you, Lord of Armies!
