¹⁰ Better is one day in your courts
    than a thousand elsewhere;
I would rather be a doorkeeper^(A) in the house of my God
    than dwell in the tents of the wicked.

⁴ One thing^(A) I ask from the Lord,
    this only do I seek:
that I may dwell in the house of the Lord
    all the days of my life,^(B)
to gaze on the beauty of the Lord
    and to seek him in his temple.

⁸ They feast on the abundance of your house;^(A)
    you give them drink from your river^(B) of delights.^(C)
9 For with you is the fountain of life;^(D)
    in your light^(E) we see light.
