诗篇 84

1 可拉后裔的诗，交与伶长。用迦特乐器。 万军之耶和华啊， 你的居所何等可爱！

For the Chief Musician. On an instrument of Gath. A Psalm by the sons of Korah. How lovely are your dwellings, LORD of Hosts!

2 我羡慕渴想耶和华的院宇； 我的心肠，我的肉体向永生 神呼吁。

My soul longs, and even faints for the courts of the LORD. My heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.

3 万军之耶和华—我的王，我的 神啊， 在你祭坛那里，麻雀为自己找着房屋， 燕子为自己找着抱雏之窝。

Yes, the sparrow has found a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may have her young, near your altars, LORD of Hosts, my King, and my God.

4 如此住在你殿中的便为有福！ 他们仍要赞美你。 (细拉)

Blessed are those who dwell in your house. They are always praising you. (Selah)

5 靠你有力量、心中想往锡安大道的， 这人便为有福！

Blessed are those whose strength is in you, who have set their hearts on a pilgrimage.

6 他们经过“流泪谷”，叫这谷变为泉源之地； 并有秋雨之福盖满了全谷。

Passing through the valley of Weeping, they make it a place of springs. Yes, the autumn rain covers it with blessings.

7 他们行走，力上加力， 各人到锡安朝见 神。

They go from strength to strength. Every one of them appears before God in Zion.

8 耶和华—万军之 神啊，求你听我的祷告！ 雅各的 神啊，求你留心听！ (细拉)

LORD, God of Hosts, hear my prayer. Listen, God of Jacob. (Selah)

9 神啊，你是我们的盾牌； 求你垂顾观看你受膏者的面！

Behold, God our shield, look at the face of your anointed.

10 在你的院宇住一日， 胜似在别处住千日； 宁可在我 神殿中看门， 不愿住在恶人的帐棚里。

For a day in your courts is better than a thousand. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.

11 因为耶和华— 神是日头，是盾牌， 要赐下恩惠和荣耀。 他未尝留下一样好处不给那些行动正直的人。

For the LORD God is a sun and a shield. The LORD will give grace and glory. He withholds no good thing from those who walk blamelessly.

12 万军之耶和华啊， 倚靠你的人便为有福！

LORD of Hosts, blessed is the man who trusts in you.
