Psalms 84

NEW JERUSALEM	STUTTGARTENSIA-DELITZSCH
1 [For the choirmaster On the . . . of Gath Of the sons of Korah Psalm] How lovely are your dwel ing-places, Yahweh Sabaoth.	1 לַמְנַצֵּחַ עַל־הַגִּתִּית לִבְנֵי־קֹרַח מִזְמֹור
2 My whole being yearns and pines for Yahweh's courts, My heart and my body cry out for joy to theliving God.	2 מַה־יְּדִידֹות מִשְׁכְּנֹותֶיךָ יְהוָה צְבָאֹות
3 Even the sparrow has found a home, the swal ow a nest to place its young: your altars, YahwehSabaoth, my King and my God.	3 נִכְסְפָה וְגַם־כָּלְתָה ׀ נַפְשִׁי לְחַצְרֹות יְהוָה לִבִּי וּבְשָׂרִי יְרַנְּנוּ אֶל אֵל־חָי
4 How blessed are those who live in your house; they shall praise you continual y. Pause	4 גַּם־צִפֹּור ׀ מָצְאָה בַיִת וּדְרֹור ׀ קֵן לָהּ אֲשֶׁר־שָׁתָה אֶפְרֹחֶיהָ אֶת־מִזְבְּחֹותֶיךָ יְהוָה צְבָאֹות מַלְכִּי וֵאלֹהָי
5 Blessed those who find their strength in you, whose hearts are set on pilgrimage.	5 אַשְׁרֵי יֹושְׁבֵי בֵיתֶךָ עֹוד יְהַלְלוּךָ סֶּלָה
6 As they pass through the Val ey of the Balsam, they make there a water-hole, and -- a further blessing-- early rain fil s it.	6 אַשְׁרֵי אָדָם עֹוז־לֹו בָךְ מְסִלֹּות בִּלְבָבָם
7 They make their way from height to height, God shows himself to them in Zion.	7 עֹבְרֵי ׀ בְּעֵמֶק הַבָּכָא מַעְיָן יְשִׁיתוּהוּ גַּם־בְּרָכֹות יַעְטֶה מֹורֶה
8 Yahweh, God Sabaoth, hear my prayer, listen, God of Jacob.	8 יֵלְכוּ מֵחַיִל אֶל־חָיִל יֵרָאֶה אֶל־אֱלֹהִים בְּצִיֹּון
9 God, our shield, look, and see the face of your anointed.	9 יְהוָה אֱלֹהִים צְבָאֹות שִׁמְעָה תְפִלָּתִי הַאֲזִינָה אֱלֹהֵי יַעֲקֹב סֶלָה
10 Better one day in your courts than a thousand at my own devices, to stand on the threshold of God'shouse than to live in the tents of the wicked.	10 מָגִנֵּנוּ רְאֵה אֱלֹהִים וְהַבֵּט פְּנֵי מְשִׁיחֶךָ
11 For Yahweh God is a rampart and shield, he gives grace and glory; Yahweh refuses nothing good tothose whose life is blameless.	11 כִּי טֹוב־יֹום בַּחֲצֵרֶיךָ מֵאָלֶף בָּחַרְתִּי הִסְתֹּופֵף בְּבֵית אֱלֹהַי מִדּוּר בְּאָהֳלֵי־רֶשַׁע
12 Yahweh Sabaoth, blessed is he who trusts in you.	12 כִּי שֶׁמֶשׁ ׀ וּמָגֵן יְהוָה אֱלֹהִים חֵן וְכָבֹוד יִתֵּן יְהוָה לֹא יִמְנַע־טֹוב לַהֹלְכִים בְּתָמִים
	13 יְהוָה צְבָאֹות אַשְׁרֵי אָדָם בֹּטֵחַ בָּךְ
