Blessed Is the Man Who Trusts in You
For the choir director. According to the Gittith. Of the sons of Korah. A Psalm.
How lovely are Your adwelling places,
O Yahweh of hosts!
2 My asoul has longed and even fainted for the courts of Yahweh;
My heart and my flesh sing for joy to the bliving God.
3 Even the bird has found a home,
And the swallow a nest for herself, where she sets her young,
At Your aaltars, O Yahweh of hosts,
bMy King and my God.
4 How ablessed are those who dwell in Your house!
They are bever praising You. Selah.
5 How blessed is the man whose astrength is in You,
In whose heart are the bhighways to Zion!
6 Passing through the valley of Baca they make it a spring;
The aearly rain also wraps it up with blessings.
7 They ago from strength to strength,
Each one of them bappears before God in Zion.
8 O aYahweh God of hosts, hear my prayer;
Give ear, O bGod of Jacob! Selah.
9 See our ashield, O God,
And look upon the face of bYour anointed.
10 For abetter is a day in Your courts than a thousand elsewhere.
I would choose to stand at the threshold of the house of my God
Than dwell in the tents of wickedness.
11 For Yahweh God is aa sun and bshield;
Yahweh gives grace and cglory;
dNo good thing does He withhold from those who walk blamelessly.
12 O Yahweh of hosts,
How ablessed is the man who trusts in You!
