84:1 To the choirmaster: according to The Gittith. A Psalm of the Sons of Korah. How lovely is your dwelling place, O LORD of hosts!
84:2 My soul longs, yes, faints for the courts of the LORD; my heart and flesh sing for joy to the living God.
84:3 Even the sparrow finds a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, at your altars, O LORD of hosts, my King and my God.
84:4 Blessed are those who dwell in your house, ever singing your praise! Selah
84:5 Blessed are those whose strength is in you, in whose heart are the highways to Zion.
84:6 As they go through the Valley of Baca they make it a place of springs; the early rain also covers it with pools.
84:7 They go from strength to strength; each one appears before God in Zion.
84:8 O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer; give ear, O God of Jacob! Selah
84:9 Behold our shield, O God; look on the face of your anointed!
84:10 For a day in your courts is better than a thousand elsewhere. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of wickedness.
84:11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD bestows favor and honor. No good thing does he withhold from those who walk uprightly.
84:12 O LORD of hosts, blessed is the one who trusts in you!
