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。

Wishing to Be in the Temple

For the director of music. By the gittith. A song of the sons of Korah.

84 Lord of heaven’s armies,
    how lovely is your Temple!
I want to be in
    the courtyards of the Lord’s Temple.
My whole being wants
    to be with the living God.
The sparrows have found a home.
    And the swallows have nests.
They raise their young near your altars,
    Lord of heaven’s armies, my King and my God.
Happy are the people who live at your Temple.
    They are always praising you. Selah

Happy are those whose strength comes from you.
    They want to travel to Jerusalem.
As they pass through the Valley of Baca,
    they make it like a spring.
    The autumn rains fill it with pools of water.
The people get stronger as they go.
    And everyone meets with God in Jerusalem.

Lord God of heaven’s armies, hear my prayer.
    God of Jacob, listen to me. Selah
God, look at our shield.
    Be kind to your appointed king.

10 One day in the courtyards of your Temple is better
    than a thousand days anywhere else.
I would rather be a doorkeeper in the Temple of my God
    than live in the homes of the wicked.
11 The Lord God is like our sun and shield.
    The Lord gives us kindness and glory.
He does not hold back anything good
    from those whose life is innocent.
12 Lord of heaven’s armies,
    happy are the people who trust you!
