< Psalms 84 >

1 To him that excelleth upon Gittith. A Psalme committed to the sonnes of Korah. O Lord of hostes, howe amiable are thy Tabernacles!
How amiable are thy tabernacles, O YHWH of hosts!
2 My soule longeth, yea, and fainteth for the courtes of the Lord: for mine heart and my flesh reioyce in the liuing God.
My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of YHWH: my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living El.
3 Yea, the sparrowe hath found her an house, and the swallow a nest for her, where she may lay her yong: euen by thine altars, O Lord of hostes, my King and my God.
Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O YHWH of hosts, my King, and my Elohim.
4 Blessed are they that dwell in thine house: they will euer praise thee. (Selah)
Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: they will be still praising thee. (Selah)
5 Blessed is the man, whose strength is in thee, and in whose heart are thy wayes.
Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; in whose heart are the ways of them.
6 They going through the vale of Baca, make welles therein: the raine also couereth the pooles.
Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools.
7 They goe from strength to strength, till euery one appeare before God in Zion.
They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appeareth before Elohim.
8 O Lord God of hostes, heare my prayer: hearken, O God of Iaakob. (Selah)
O YHWH Elohim of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O Elohim of Jacob. (Selah)
9 Beholde, O God, our shielde, and looke vpon the face of thine Anointed.
Behold, O Elohim our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed.
10 For a day in thy courtes is better then a thousand other where: I had rather be a doore keeper in the House of my God, then to dwell in the Tabernacles of wickednesse.
For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my Elohim, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
11 For the Lord God is the sunne and shielde vnto vs: the Lord will giue grace and glory, and no good thing will he withhold from them that walke vprightly.
For YHWH Elohim is a sun and shield: YHWH will give favour and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.
12 O Lord of hostes, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.
O YHWH of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.
