1 To the chief Musician{H5329}{H8764)} upon Gittith{H1665}, A Psalm{H4210} for the sons{H1121} of Korah{H7141}. How amiable{H3039} are thy tabernacles{H4908}, O LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635}!

2 My soul{H5315} longeth{H3700}{H8738)}, yea, even fainteth{H3615}{H8804)} for the courts{H2691} of the LORD{H3068}: my heart{H3820} and my flesh{H1320} crieth out{H7442}{H8762)} for the living{H2416} God{H410}.

3 Yea, the sparrow{H6833} hath found{H4672}{H8804)} an house{H1004}, and the swallow{H1866} a nest{H7064} for herself, where she may lay{H7896}{H8804)} her young{H667}, even thine altars{H4196}, O LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635}, my King{H4428}, and my God{H430}.

4 Blessed{H835} are they that dwell{H3427}{H8802)} in thy house{H1004}: they will be still praising{H1984}{H8762)} thee. Selah{H5542}.

5 Blessed{H835} is the man{H120} whose strength{H5797} is in thee; in whose heart{H3824} are the ways{H4546} of them.

6 Who passing{H5674}{H8802)} through the valley{H6010} of Baca{H1056}{H8676)}{H1057} make{H7896}{H8799)} it a well{H4599}; the rain{H4175} also filleth{H5844}{H8799)} the pools{H1293}.

7 They go{H3212}{H8799)} from strength{H2428} to strength{H2428}, every one of them in Zion{H6726} appeareth{H7200}{H8735)} before God{H430}.

8 O LORD{H3068} God{H430} of hosts{H6635}, hear{H8085}{H8798)} my prayer{H8605}: give ear{H238}{H8685)}, O God{H430} of Jacob{H3290}. Selah{H5542}.

9 Behold{H7200}{H8798)}, O God{H430} our shield{H4043}, and look{H5027}{H8685)} upon the face{H6440} of thine anointed{H4899}.

10 For a day{H3117} in thy courts{H2691} is better{H2896} than a thousand{H505}. I had rather{H977}{H8804)} be a doorkeeper{H5605}{H8705)} in the house{H1004} of my God{H430}, than to dwell{H1752}{H8800)} in the tents{H168} of wickedness{H7562}.

11 For the LORD{H3068} God{H430} is a sun{H8121} and shield{H4043}: the LORD{H3068} will give{H5414}{H8799)} grace{H2580} and glory{H3519}: no good{H2896} thing will he withhold{H4513}{H8799)} from them that walk{H1980}{H8802)} uprightly{H8549}.

12 O LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635}, blessed{H835} is the man{H120} that trusteth{H982}{H8802)} in thee.
