King James Version of the Bible

Book of Psalms

Chapter 84



84:1  How amiable are thy tabernacles, O LORD of hosts!
84:2  My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of the LORD: my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God.
84:3  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.
84:4  Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: they will be still praising thee. Selah.
84:5  Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; in whose heart are the ways of them.
84:6  Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools.
84:7  They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appeareth before God.
84:8  O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah.
84:9  Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed.
84:10  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.
84:11  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.
84:12  O LORD of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.
