< Psalms 84 >

1 The salm of the sones of Chore. Lord of vertues, thi tabernaclis ben greetli loued;
How amiable are thy tabernacles, O YHWH of hosts!
2 my soule coueitith, and failith in to the porchis of the Lord. Myn herte and my fleische; ful out ioyeden in to quyk God.
My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of YHWH: my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living El.
3 For whi a sparewe fyndith an hous to it silf; and a turtle fyndith a neste to it silf, where it `schal kepe hise bryddis. Lord of vertues, thin auteris; 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 Lord, blessid ben thei that dwellen in thin hous; thei schulen preise thee in to the worldis of worldis.
Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: they will be still praising thee. (Selah)
5 Blessid is the man, whos help is of thee; he hath disposid stiyngis in his herte,
Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; in whose heart are the ways of them.
6 in the valei of teeris, in the place which he hath set.
Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools.
7 For the yyuer of the lawe schal yyue blessyng, thei schulen go fro vertu in to vertu; God of goddis schal be seyn in Sion.
They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appeareth before Elohim.
8 Lord God of vertues, here thou my preier; God of Jacob, perseyue thou with eeris.
O YHWH Elohim of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O Elohim of Jacob. (Selah)
9 God, oure defender, biholde thou; and biholde in to the face of thi crist.
Behold, O Elohim our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed.
10 For whi o dai in thin hallis is bettere; than a thousynde. I chees to be `an out cast in the hous of my God; more than to dwelle in the tabernaclis of synneris.
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 God loueth merci and treuthe; the Lord schal yyue grace and glorie.
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 He schal not depriue hem fro goodis, that gon in innocence; Lord of vertues, blessid is the man, that hopith in thee.
O YHWH of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.
