渴慕朝見 神的必蒙福

可拉子孫的詩,交給詩班長,用“迦特”的樂器。

84 萬軍之耶和華啊!

你的居所多麼可愛。

我的靈渴想切慕耶和華的院子,

我的心身向永活的 神歡呼。

萬軍之耶和華,我的王我的 神啊!

在你的祭壇那裡,

麻雀找到了住處,

燕子也為自己找到了安置幼雛的巢。

住在你殿中的,都是有福的,

他們還要不斷讚美你。(細拉)

靠你有力量,心中嚮往通到聖殿大道的,

這人是有福的。

他們經過乾旱的山谷,

使這谷變為泉源之地,

更有秋雨使這谷到處都是水池。

他們行走,力上加力,

直到各人在錫安朝見 神。

耶和華萬軍的 神啊!

求你聽我的禱告;

雅各的 神啊!

求你留心聽。(細拉)

 神啊!求你垂顧我們的盾牌,

求你看顧你的受膏者。

10 在你院子裡住一日,

勝過在別處住千日;

寧願站在我 神殿中的門檻上,

也不願住在惡人的帳棚裡。

11 因為耶和華 神是太陽,是盾牌,

耶和華賜下恩惠和光榮;

他沒有留下一樣好處,

不給那些行為正直的人。

12 萬軍之耶和華啊!

倚靠你的人是有福的。

Longing for the Temple Worship.

To the Chief Musician; set to a [a]Philistine lute. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.

84 How lovely are Your dwelling places,
O Lord of hosts!

My soul (my life, my inner self) longs for and greatly desires the courts of the Lord;
My heart and my flesh sing for joy to the living God.

The bird has found a house,
And the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young—
Even Your altars, O Lord of hosts,
My King and my God.

Blessed and greatly favored are those who dwell in Your house and Your presence;
They will be singing Your praises all the day long. Selah.


Blessed and greatly favored is the man whose strength is in You,
In [b]whose heart are the highways to Zion.

Passing through the Valley of Weeping ([c]Baca), they make it a place of springs;
The early rain also covers it with blessings.

They go from strength to strength [increasing in victorious power];
Each of them appears before God in Zion.


O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer;
Listen, O God of Jacob! Selah.

See our shield, O God,
And look at the face of Your anointed [the king as Your representative].
10 
For a day in Your courts is better than a thousand [anywhere else];
I would rather stand [as a doorkeeper] at the threshold of the house of my God
Than to live [at ease] in the tents of wickedness.
11 
For the Lord God is a sun and shield;
The Lord bestows grace and favor and honor;
No good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly.
12 
O Lord of hosts,
How blessed and greatly favored is the man who trusts in You [believing in You, relying on You, and committing himself to You with confident hope and expectation].
