Psalm 84:5-12

English Standard Version

⁵ Blessed are those whose strength is in you,
    ^(A)in whose heart are the highways to Zion.^[a]
6 As they go through the Valley of Baca
    they make it a place of springs;
    ^(B)the early rain also covers it with ^(C)pools.
⁷ They go ^(D)from strength to strength;
    each one ^(E)appears before God in Zion.

⁸ O ^(F)Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer;
    give ear, O God of Jacob! Selah
^9 (G)Behold our ^(H)shield, O God;
    look on the face of your anointed!

¹⁰ For a day ^(I)in your courts is better
    than a thousand elsewhere.
I would rather be ^(J)a doorkeeper in the house of my God
    than dwell in the tents of wickedness.
¹¹ For the Lord God is ^(K)a sun and ^(L)shield;
    the Lord bestows favor and honor.
^(M)No good thing does he withhold
    from those who ^(N)walk uprightly.
¹² O Lord of hosts,
    ^(O)blessed is the one who trusts in you!
