English Translation
For the leader; on the gittith. Of the Korahites. A psalm. How lovely is Your dwelling-place,
O GOD of Hosts. I long, I yearn for the courts of the ETERNAL One;
my body and soul shout for joy to the living God. Even the sparrow has found a home,
and the swallow a nest for herself
in which to set her young,
near Your altar, O GOD of Hosts,
my monarch and my God. Happy are those who dwell in Your house;
they forever praise You. Selah. Happy are those who find refuge in You,
whose mind is on the [pilgrim] highways. They pass through the Valley of Baca,
regarding it as a place of springs,
as if the early rain had covered it with blessing.aregarding it … blessing Meaning of Heb. uncertain. They go from rampart to rampart,brampart to rampart In contrast to others “strength to strength.”
appearing before God in Zion. O ETERNAL God of hosts,
hear my prayer;
give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah. O God, behold our shield,
look upon the face of Your anointed. Better one day in Your courts than a thousand [anywhere else];
I would rather stand at the threshold of God’s house
than dwell in the tents of the wicked. For the ETERNAL God is suncsun Or “bulwark,” with Targum; cf. Isa. 54.12. and shield;
GOD bestows grace and glory,
and does not withhold bounty from those who live without blame. O GOD of Hosts,
happy is the one who trusts in You.
