渴慕朝见 神的必蒙福

可拉子孙的诗,交给诗班长,用“迦特”的乐器。

84 万军之耶和华啊!

你的居所多么可爱。

我的灵渴想切慕耶和华的院子,

我的心身向永活的 神欢呼。

万军之耶和华,我的王我的 神啊!

在你的祭坛那里,

麻雀找到了住处,

燕子也为自己找到了安置幼雏的巢。

住在你殿中的,都是有福的,

他们还要不断赞美你。(细拉)

靠你有力量,心中向往通到圣殿大道的,

这人是有福的。

他们经过干旱的山谷,

使这谷变为泉源之地,

更有秋雨使这谷到处都是水池。

他们行走,力上加力,

直到各人在锡安朝见 神。

耶和华万军的 神啊!

求你听我的祷告;

雅各的 神啊!

求你留心听。(细拉)

 神啊!求你垂顾我们的盾牌,

求你看顾你的受膏者。

10 在你院子里住一日,

胜过在别处住千日;

宁愿站在我 神殿中的门槛上,

也不愿住在恶人的帐棚里。

11 因为耶和华 神是太阳,是盾牌,

耶和华赐下恩惠和光荣;

他没有留下一样好处,

不给那些行为正直的人。

12 万军之耶和华啊!

倚靠你的人是有福的。

Psalm 84[a]

For the director of music. According to gittith.[b] Of the Sons of Korah. A psalm.

How lovely is your dwelling place,(A)
    Lord Almighty!
My soul yearns,(B) even faints,
    for the courts of the Lord;
my heart and my flesh cry out
    for the living God.(C)
Even the sparrow has found a home,
    and the swallow a nest for herself,
    where she may have her young—
a place near your altar,(D)
    Lord Almighty,(E) my King(F) and my God.(G)
Blessed are those who dwell in your house;
    they are ever praising you.[c]

Blessed are those whose strength(H) is in you,
    whose hearts are set on pilgrimage.(I)
As they pass through the Valley of Baka,
    they make it a place of springs;(J)
    the autumn(K) rains also cover it with pools.[d]
They go from strength to strength,(L)
    till each appears(M) before God in Zion.(N)

Hear my prayer,(O) Lord God Almighty;
    listen to me, God of Jacob.
Look on our shield,[e](P) O God;
    look with favor on your anointed one.(Q)

10 Better is one day in your courts
    than a thousand elsewhere;
I would rather be a doorkeeper(R) in the house of my God
    than dwell in the tents of the wicked.
11 For the Lord God is a sun(S) and shield;(T)
    the Lord bestows favor and honor;
no good thing does he withhold(U)
    from those whose walk is blameless.

12 Lord Almighty,
    blessed(V) is the one who trusts in you.
