How lovely
are Your adwelling
places
, O LORD
of hosts
!
My asoul longed
and even
yearned
for the courts
of the LORD
; My heart
and my flesh
sing
for joy
to the bliving
God
.
The bird also
has found
a house
, And the swallow
a nest
for herself, where
she may lay
her young
, Even Your aaltars
, O LORD
of hosts
, bMy King
and my God
.
How ablessed are those who dwell
in Your house
! They are bever
praising
You. 1Selah
.
How blessed is the man
whose astrength
is in You, In 1whose heart
are the bhighways
to Zion!
Passing through the valley
of 1Baca
they make
it a 2spring
; The aearly
rain
also
covers
it with blessings
.
They ago from strength
to strength
, 1Every one of them bappears
before
God
in Zion
.
O aLORD God
of hosts
, hear
my prayer
; Give
ear
, O bGod
of Jacob
! Selah
.
Behold our ashield
, O God
, And look
upon the face
of bYour anointed
.
For aa day in Your courts
is better
than
a thousand
outside. I would rather stand
at the threshold
of the house
of my God
Than
dwell
in the tents
of wickedness
.
For the LORD God
is aa sun
and bshield
; The LORD
gives
grace
and cglory
; dNo
good
thing
does He withhold
1from those who walk
2uprightly
.
O LORD of hosts
, How ablessed
is the man
who trusts
in You!
