Psalms 84:1-12 — Longing for God's House

Ps.84.1-12

¹For the choirmaster. According to the Gittith . A psalm of the sons of Korah. ²How lovely are your dwelling places, O LORD of Hosts! ³My soul longs, yes, even faints for the courts of the LORD; my heart and my flesh cry out for joy to the living God. ⁴Even the sparrow has found 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. ⁵Blessed are those who dwell in your house; they are ever praising you. Selah. ⁶Blessed is the person whose strength is in you, in whose heart are the highways. ⁷As they pass through the Valley of Baca , they make it a spring; the early rain also covers it with blessings . ⁸The pilgrims go from strength to strength ; each one appears before God in Zion. ⁹O LORD God of Hosts, hear my prayer; give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah. ¹⁰Behold our shield, O God, and look upon the face of your anointed. ¹¹For a day in your courts is better than a thousand elsewhere. I would rather stand at the threshold of the house of my God than dwell in the tents of wickedness. ¹²For the LORD God is a sun and a shield; the LORD gives grace and glory; he does not withhold good from those who walk in integrity.
