the
chief
Musician
upon
Gittith,
A
Psalm
for
the
sons
of
Korah.
How
amiable
[are]
thy
tabernacles,
O
LORD
of
hosts!
2
My
soul
longeth,
yea,
even
fainteth
for
the
courts
of
the
LORD:
my
heart
and
my
flesh
crieth
out
for
the
living
God.
3
Yea,
the
sparrow
hath
found
an
house,
and
the
swallow
a
nest
for
herself,
where
she
may
lay
her
young,
[even]
thine
altars,
O
LORD
of
hosts,
my
King,
and
my
God.
4
Blessed
[are]
they
that
dwell
in
thy
house:
they
will
be
still
praising
thee.
Selah.
5
Blessed
[is]
the
man
whose
strength
[is]
in
thee;
in
whose
heart
[are]
the
ways
[of
them].
6
[Who]
passing
through
the
valley
of
Baca
make
it
a
well;
the
rain
also
filleth
the
pools.
7
They
go
from
strength
to
strength,
[every
one
of
them]
in
Zion
appeareth
before
God.
8
O
LORD
God
of
hosts,
hear
my
prayer:
give
ear,
O
God
of
Jacob.
Selah.
9
Behold,
O
God
our
shield,
and
look
upon
the
face
of
thine
anointed.
10
For
a
day
in
thy
courts
[is]
better
than
a
thousand.
I
had
rather
be
a
doorkeeper
in
the
house
of
my
God,
than
to
dwell
in
the
tents
of
wickedness.
11
For
the
LORD
God
[is]
a
sun
and
shield:
the
LORD
will
give
grace
and
glory:
no
good
[thing]
will
he
withhold
from
them
that
walk
uprightly.
12
O
LORD
of
hosts,
blessed
[is]
the
man
that
trusteth
in
thee.
