The Book of Psalms 84

Text size

1 How amiable are thy tabernacles O LORD of hosts ⚑

2 My soul longeth yea even fainteth for the courts of the LORD my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God ⚑

3 Yea the sparrow hath found an house and the swallow a nest for herself where she may lay her young even thine altars O LORD of hosts my King and my God ⚑

4 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 in whose heart are the ways of them ⚑

6 Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well the rain also filleth the pools ⚑

7 They go from strength to strength every one of them in Zion appeareth before God ⚑

8 O LORD God of hosts hear my prayer give ear O God of Jacob Selah ⚑

9 Behold O God our shield and look upon the face of thine anointed ⚑

10 For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than to dwell in the tents of wickedness ⚑

11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield the LORD will give grace and glory no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly ⚑

12 O LORD of hosts blessed is the man that trusteth in thee ⚑
