Psalms 84:5-12

5How blessed is the man whose 1strength is in You, In 2whose heart are the 3highways to Zion!6Passing through the valley of 4Baca they make it a 5spring; The 6early rain also covers it with blessings.7They 7go from strength to strength, 8Every one of them 9appears before God in Zion.

8O 10Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer; Give ear, O 11God of Jacob! Selah.9Behold our 12shield, O God, And look upon the face of 13Your anointed.10For 14a day in Your courts is better than a thousand outside. I would rather stand at the threshold of the house of my God Than dwell in the tents of wickedness.11For the Lord God is 15a sun and 16shield; The Lord gives grace and 17glory; 18No good thing does He withhold 19from those who walk 20uprightly.12O Lord of hosts, How 21blessed is the man who trusts in You!
