Psalm 84:1–7
1 How lovely is your dwelling place,
Lord of Armies.c
for the courts of the Lord;
my heart and flesh cry out forA the living God.d
3 Even a sparrow finds a home,
and a swallow, a nest for herself
where she places her young—
near your altars, Lord of Armies,
my King and my God.e
4 How happy are those who reside in your house,
who praise you continually.f
Selah
5 Happy are the people whose strength is in you,
whose hearts are set on pilgrimage.g
6 As they pass through the Valley of Baca,B
they make it a source of spring water;
even the autumn rain will cover it with blessings.C,h
7 They go from strength to strength;
each appears before God in Zion.i
