the thing I seek most—
is to live in the house of the Lord all the days of my life,

and meditating in his Temple.

At his sanctuary I will offer sacrifices with shouts of joy,
singing and praising the Lord with music.

and serve him day and night in his Temple.
And he who sits on the throne
will give them shelter.
