1For the choirmaster. According to Gittith. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. How lovely is Your dwelling place, O LORD of Hosts!1For the music director; according to the gittith style; written by the Korahites, a psalm. How lovely is the place where you live, O LORD who rules over all!
2My soul longs, even faints, for the courts of the LORD; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.2I desperately want to be in the courts of the LORD's temple. My heart and my entire being shout for joy to the living God.
3Even the sparrow has found a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she places her young near Your altars, O LORD of Hosts, my King and my God.3Even the birds find a home there, and the swallow builds a nest, where she can protect her young near your altars, O LORD who rules over all, my king and my God.
4How blessed are those who dwell in Your house! They are ever praising You. Selah4How blessed are those who live in your temple and praise you continually! (Selah)
5Blessed are those whose strength is in You, whose hearts are set on pilgrimage.5How blessed are those who find their strength in you, and long to travel the roads that lead to your temple!
6As they pass through the Valley of Baca, they make it a place of springs; even the autumn rain covers it with pools.6As they pass through the Baca Valley, he provides a spring for them. The rain even covers it with pools of water.
7They go from strength to strength, until each appears before God in Zion.7They are sustained as they travel along; each one appears before God in Zion.
8O LORD God of Hosts, hear my prayer; give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah8O LORD, sovereign God, hear my prayer! Listen, O God of Jacob! (Selah)
9Take notice of our shield, O God, and look with favor on the face of Your anointed.9O God, take notice of our shield! Show concern for your chosen king!
10For better is one day in Your courts than a thousand elsewhere. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked.10Certainly spending just one day in your temple courts is better than spending a thousand elsewhere. I would rather stand at the entrance to the temple of my God than live in the tents of the wicked.
11For the LORD God is a sun and a shield; the LORD gives grace and glory; He withholds no good thing from those who walk with integrity.11For the LORD God is our sovereign protector. The LORD bestows favor and honor; he withholds no good thing from those who have integrity.
12O LORD of Hosts, how blessed is the man who trusts in You!12O LORD who rules over all, how blessed are those who trust in you!
