^4 (A)One thing have I asked of the Lord,
    that will I seek after:
that I may ^(B)dwell in the house of the Lord
    all the days of my life,
to gaze upon ^(C)the beauty of the Lord
    and to inquire^[a] in his temple.

⁶ And now my ^(A)head shall be lifted up
    above my enemies all around me,
and I will offer in his tent
    sacrifices with shouts of ^(B)joy;
^(C)I will sing and make melody to the Lord.
